Arts and culture are central to how we live our lives. It is how we tell our stories, build a sense of belonging and grow our understanding of the world. It provides a vehicle for exploring new ideas and ways of thinking, which develop our capacity to engage with our current challenges and create the future we want for our region.
The Creative Indigo Strategy articulates our shared aspirations for the cultural life of the Shire. It is designed to guide how Council will direct its resources and energies, highlighting key areas of focus for the next five years.
Council is making this commitment in recognition of the health and wellbeing, economic and cultural benefits a thriving creative community delivers for the Shire.
Indigo is home to a rich and diverse community of artists and cultural practitioners. This Strategy aims to support these creative communities, enable them to thrive, and unlock the creative potential of our region.
This Strategy was adopted by Council on Tuesday 28 March, 2023.
