Bravo releases Community Cultural Plan
Bravo Greater Des Moines yesterday released its final Cultural Plan to grow arts and culture in Des Moines.
The purpose of the plan is to identify and describe the region’s cultural assets and identify why they are important and the value they add to the community. The plan also aims to identify ways organizations can work together.
Created with input from more than 60 arts, cultural and heritage organizations and more than 100 individuals representing the public and municipalities, the final plan defines four focus areas that are important to growing arts and culture. The focus areas are:
Connecting “community and culture” by strengthening Bravo as the region’s art council.
Expanding and sustaining resources for arts and culture by growing financial resources. To do this, the plan calls for citizens to deeply engage in local arts activities.
Enabling Bravo to be “enterprise centered” by supporting local organizations and working to enhance their viability.
Capacity building by gathering and disseminating information and convening the arts, cultural and heritage sector.
It is estimated that all arts, cultural and heritage organizations in Greater Des Moines spend approximately $70 million and have an economic impact on the region of more than $200 million each year, according Steven Wolff, principal of AMS Planning and Research Corp, which conducted a study as part of the planning process.
