12/6/2008A question of culture in Culross
With the Festival and Fair less than two months away, one can say Culross will have arts and culture on the mind in the coming weeks.
Fife Council's had a number of public gatherings to discuss building the future for Fife's culture. Now there's an online questionnaire that reflects the major themes identified by over 3000 people taking part in this Big Conversation to date. They would like to know which of them people think are the most important to begin working on.
So far they have received many suggestions about how Fife Council, working with its partners, can:
- Improve public access to cultural facilities, events and resources in Fife
- Raise the numbers and range of people involved in enjoying or making 'art' and 'culture' in Fife
- Support and develop the creative talents of Fife's people.
This will help them decide on the first steps needed to take to achieve the goals set out above. In September 2008 a 'group of professionals tasked with providing cultural experiences for the people of Fife' will reflect on these recommendations to help build a new plan for Fife's Culture.
Do you think the outcomes of this process will have any impact at all on Culross?
