Arts and Culture Local Democracy Group

The purpose of the Arts and Culture Local Democracy Group (LDG) is to:

Contribute to achieving community outcomes as set out in the Inner West Community Strategic Plan and implementation of Council’s four-year Delivery Program
Provide input into development and implementation of Inner West policies, strategic plans and/or programs as related to arts and culture as requested.
Serve as a resource for Council in relation to matters which Council resolves to bring before the LDG for input.
Provide input into the development and implementation of the Cultural Strategy.

Over the term, this group will deliberate on the following policy challenges and report back to Council every six months on the progress.

The Inner West is home to more artists and people employed in the creative sector per capita than anywhere else in NSW. How can Council work with these local networks and industry experts to support and grow our local creative sector sustainably?
How can the development and implementation of the new Inner West Cultural Strategy best support the local creative sector?
