The City of Fort Saskatchewan invites proposals from qualified consultants to complete a Culture Master Plan for the City’s Culture & Recreation Department.
In 2020, Culture and Recreation will develop a framework cultural plan, which is a community-wide plan based on a broadly defined understanding of culture. This plan will be compiled through a process of community involvement to produce a framework of long range goals to guide more specific planning work in the future.
The Culture Master Plan will outline a vision for events, arts, culture and heritage. It will set priorities and strategies to support decision-making and resource allocation to maintain a vibrant, sustainable community and quality of life for current and future residents. The Culture Plan will serve as a guiding document over the next ten years.
The scope of work for this project is to assess the programs and services offered by the City’s Culture Business Unit which includes:
* Fort Heritage Precinct
* Visual Arts
* Culture Programs
* Shell Theater
* Special Events
* Other
Objectives of the Culture Master Plan:
* Strengthen an authentic and shared identity
* Identify the role of culture in enhancing the quality of life and place
* Identify the role of culture in economic development and diversification
* Guide the development of programs, service delivery and facilities for the next 10 years
* Acknowledge and incorporate the growing diversity in the community
* Acknowledge and celebrate Indigenous culture in the community
* Celebrate our community’s rich history
* Connect to the City’s vision and strategic plan
