Have Your Say! South Derbyshire District Council Arts Strategy

South Derbyshire District Council is currently developing an arts strategy. The strategy will help them set out how they, as a council, support and develop arts and creativity across their communities. It helps them understand what’s already happening locally, what people value, and where there are opportunities to grow and improve.

They’re developing an Arts Strategy to:

  • Celebrate and support local creativity – from community groups to professional artists.
  • Make arts more accessible – so that everyone can take part, enjoy, and benefit.
  • Strengthen the local identity – by showcasing the unique culture and heritage of their area.
  • Encourage collaboration – between artists, organisations, schools, and residents.
  • Attract investment and opportunities – to help their creative sector thrive.

This strategy will be shaped by local voices and reflect the needs and ambitions of their communities. Whether you’re an artist, a resident, or someone who enjoys creative experiences, they are keen to have your input!
