Arts and Culture

Overview

Creativity connects and energises our people, powers our communities by improving our health and sense of wellbeing, and provides opportunities for cultural tourism that feeds creative industry development.

Arts and Cultural Action Plan

Isaac Regional Council’s Arts and Cultural Policy defines Council’s commitment to arts and cultural development in the Isaac region and informs Council in setting arts and cultural priorities for programs, facilities and activities in the region.

Isaac’s Arts and Cultural Action Plan 2018-2022 details how the Arts and Cultural Policy will be implemented.

Public Art

Public art is a growing medium of expressing the uniqueness and individuality of a community while building community cultural capacity and actively supporting cultural enterprise. Public art can be permanent, temporary or ephemeral and can be represented in a range of artforms (e.g. sculpture, installation, projection, performance).
