Following on from the revelations of recent cultural research projects my attentions move on to the Toowoomba Region which is planning for a very cultural future. In the wake of compelling research on the links between cultural vitality and the modern economic development, my new research project will look at cultural service delivery throughout the region. This will fuel the development of a service delivery model that will support and harness arts and culture to enhance community vitality and quality of place – key elements of a modern economy. Looking to the future of regional development on the back of investment in arts, culture and heritage; way to go.
