Berri Barmera Council Arts and Culture Survey |
Berri Barmera Council is gathering information about arts and cultural activity and resources in the region. We are interested in finding out about activities, events, the people and groups involved and places where arts and cultural things happen. We would also like to hear your ideas about arts and cultural development into the future - how can we best utilise our strengths, make improvements and grow the sector in the region.
This survey will help to inform an Arts and Culture strategy that we will be developing in the coming months.
If you would like further information or to discuss the contents of the survey in more detail, feel free to contact our Consultant - Maz McGann on 0438 807 973 or via email at mmcgann@internode.on.net
We also encourage you to send the survey out to other people in your networks - so please pass it on.
