Gladstone Region Votes on Arts & Culture
Back in the Gladstone Region last week finishing off the research and consultation process for the new arts & cultural policy and plan. Another round of stimulating conversations with the cultural champions of the region. Got the results of the community survey in too – 100% of respondents from across the region reckon that a vital arts and cultural life is important – amongst other good things. Not a bad foundation to work from. Got all the info I need now; just have to write it all up in some kind of meaningful way and get the ball rolling on the next exciting chapter of arts and cultural development in the region. Per capita there’s already a great deal going on. It’s onwards and upwards from here.

Quilpie Cultural Plan Adopted
Very happy to report that the Quilpie Arts and Cultural Plan which I have been working on over the past few months has been adopted by Council. My thanks to all those community and cultural champions who contributed. The arts and cultural life in the Shire is alive and thriving and hopefully the Plan will build on all this wonderful work and help to enhance the vitality of this quintessential Outback Shire.

After a long absence, a happy return to Emerald for a couple of Arts Management workshops with the local Cultural Champions. The town is looking great and it was a pleasure to spend some quality time with such an enthusiastic group. Look forward to returning to the jewel of the West in 2016.
