                                                      placemaking to ensure its concepts and strategies are
                                                      understood and implemented collectively across the
                                                      organisation. It will work with stakeholders to improve

                                                      of local identity through various measures including
                                                      creative arts, built infrastructure, streetscaping and
                                                      precinct development.




Arts and Culture
in Public Places
Council will undertake a review of Noosa’s
approach to art and culture in public places with a
view to improving residents and visitors sense of
Noosa being a creative and culturally rich region.
This will include an audit of existing permanent
and temporary public art and practice, both visual
and performing, the development of a public
arts policy and action plan and working with
stakeholders to increase the inclusion of visual
and performing arts within council facilities and
commercial public places.




                                                       Arts and the Environment
                                                       Floating Land will continue to be a signature
                                                       event in the cultural calendar and will be reviewed
                                                       to provide greater continuity and connection
                                                       between iterations, increase external resourcing
                                                       and increase the level of community input and
                                                       ownership. In addition, stakeholders will consider
                                                       new opportunities to reinvigorate the important
                                                       relationship between arts and the environment. This
