How can Minneapolis be a better arts and creative city?
The City of Minneapolis is leading a planning process to think more strategically about how its arts and creative assets can best contribute to the local and regional economy and improve Minneapolis' quality of life. We would like to hear from you about your participation in Minneapolis arts and culture. You can take a survey by Nov. 21 either online or by downloading a PDF. Results from this survey will greatly inform the Creative City Road Map, a plan for Minneapolis arts and culture for the next 10 years. Watch www.creativeminneapolis.org for updates and more information about the process and events, a survey, and what Minneapolitans are saying and thinking about how the arts and creative activities connect to their lives.
