Shape Cornwall's Arts, Culture and Public Arts Strategy

The City of Cornwall is excited to announce the launch of our new Arts, Culture, and Public Art Strategy! This initiative aims to transform Cornwall into a vibrant destination for the arts, celebrating our diverse cultures and guiding the integration of public art throughout the city, especially along the beautiful waterfront.

Get Involved and Share Your Vision!

This strategy will be developed over the next few months through extensive community engagement, with the goal of presenting it to Council by the end of this year. We want to hear from you!

There will be many opportunities to share your thoughts and help shape this important strategy. Over the coming month, our team is eager to connect with you through:

• We are happy to invite you to take part in a one-on-one conversation with the consultant's project manager.

To register for a 15-minute telephone call to discuss your ideas for arts, culture, and public art, please email cornwall@planpart.ca. In your email, let us know the best time and phone number for a call on Monday, July 21st.

Prepare for Your Conversation

To help you prepare for your call, we encourage you to think about:

• What's important to you regarding arts and culture in Cornwall?
• What does public art mean to you?
• What are some key locations for public art in our city?
• Are there any cities, towns, or villages you think do an excellent job developing and promoting arts and culture?

We look forward to hearing your valuable insights!

Kind regards,
Cornwall Arts and Culture Strategy Team

P.S.  Please plan to attend the kickoff presentation and interactive workshop on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at 6:30 pm at the Benson Centre.  RSVP: https://cornwalltourism.com/industry/
