Questionnaire for Event-based Organizations
Greetings!

The City of Rochester and Monroe County are creating an arts and culture plan to strengthen the local arts and culture network, and to make sure that the area's arts and cultural offerings are exciting, representative, and accessible to everyone. You can read more about the plan at this link.

We are interested in hearing from a variety of organizations that play a role in the area's arts and culture ecosystem. We would appreciate if you could take a few moments to answer this questionnaire so that we can learn more about your organization, what you see as your role is in this ecosystem, your assessment of arts and culture currently in Rochester and Monroe County, and what you think this plan can do to make it better.

Thank you in advance for your help! Please feel free to contact us at publicartplans@gmail.com with any questions!

The Arts & Culture Plan is being led by a project team including the City of Rochester, Monroe County, Designing Local (a consulting firm specializing in arts and culture planning), and an Artist Engagement Team. The Rochester Area Community Foundation and the Farash Foundation have generously contributed to the development of this plan.
