ROTORUA PERFORMING ARTS ACTIVATIONS

The Performing Arts Programme will act as a platform for our local and national artists to share their voices with our wider community. '' The Creative Strategy emphasises a spirit of shared endeavour that Council will foster to achieve Rotorua’s goals for arts and culture. The strategy has the vision “Rotorua has a vibrant and sustainable creative sector”. The arts and cultural sector has the potential to significantly transform, with our vision seeking to highlight the economic potential of the sector. Therefore, our actions must be dynamic, engaging and transformational.''- 2030 V ision statement, R otor ua Lakes C ouncil.

THE VALUE OF ARTS AND CULTURE TO

PEOPLE AND SOCIETY

“THERE IS STRONG EVIDENCE THAT PARTICIPATION IN THE ARTS CAN CONTRIBUTE TO COMMUNITY COHESION, REDUCE SOCIAL EXCLUSION AND

ISOLATION, AND/OR MAKE COMMUNITIES FEEL SAFER AND STRONGER... AND THE USE OF ART, WHEN DELIVERED EFFECTIVELY, HAS THE POWER TO

FACILITATE SOCIAL INTERACTION”.
