​

East Gippsland Shire Council is developing a Culture and Creativity Strategy to guide its activities in this field over the next 10 years. The purpose of the strategy is to set a collective vision for our creative future and define how Council will help achieve it.

It is essential the strategy reflects the unique needs and desires of our community. Whether you're a painter, musician, dancer, poet or game designer, an enthusiastic amateur, seasoned professional or an interested member of the public – we want to hear from you.

East Gippsland Shire Council want to hear about what you love doing, what you want to see more of, and your vision for a creative future.

​

The discussion will take place at the East Gippsland Art Gallery and be facilitated by Leith Thomas from Future Tense, who is working with Council to develop the new Strategy
