Where do you produce your art?

Artist survey

This survey is being undertaken by Whistler's Community Cultural Officer, who has a mandate to advance recommendations contained within the 2013 Whistler Cultural Plan, including the need for more affordable space in which local artists can work, perform and exhibit. This survey is designed to assess the nature and extent of home-based art studios, in order to support potential revisions to restrictive by-laws and possibly, creation of a self-guided tour of home-based artist studios.

Information provided through this survey will be strictly confidential. No names or particular circumstances will be revealed.

It may take 5 minutes to complete this survey. Your participation is greatly appreciated as we attempt to build the cultural capacity of our community.

The deadline for completion of the survey is Monday, October 20.
