                                          Where Art Thou
                                          Council’s cultural officers and teams will review their
                                          approach to the delivery of creative programs and
                                          activities with the aim of understanding community
                                          expectations, broadening audience appeal and
                                          increasing participation. The focus will be on increasing
                                          the delivery of activities outside of traditional cultural
                                          facilities to non-traditional places where people will feel
                                          more encouraged and comfortable in participating.




Events and Festivals
Events and festivals will continue to
be an important part of the Noosa
calendar and Council recognises the
important role local organisations
and businesses play. Council will work
with key stakeholders to understand
obstacles and opportunities and
the contemporary requirements for
event success and to respond with
an appropriately supportive model.
Consideration will be given to niche
events that attract a distinct audience
to gain a market edge.
