                                              Sense of Place
                                              Council will review and improve its approach to
                                              placemaking to ensure its concepts and strategies are
                                              understood and implemented collectively across the
                                              organisation. It will work with stakeholders to achieve
                                              an integrated, place based approach which supports
                                              community cohesion, improves the aesthetic appeal
                                              and maintains a sense of local identity through
                                              measures including creative arts, built infrastructure,
                                              streetscaping and precinct development.




Arts in Public Places
Council will undertake a review of Noosa’s
approach to art 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 appropriate
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 symbiotic
                                              relationship between arts and the environment
                                              with the environment acting as inspiration for
                                              cultural works and cultural works assisting people to
                                              understand the impact of complex environmental
                                              issues and motivate them to act.
