Arts & Culture

Strengthening ICCA will enhance outreach to diverse audiences and to a broader range of arts and culture organizations. The initiative on STEM will enrich educational opportunities.  Strengthened partnerships across sectors will increase opportunities for collaboration, which will result in enhanced resiliency of arts and culture and the region.
Action 1: Integrate the art and culture sectors into existing community efforts, by: completing an arts and prosperity stud; and, working with local school districts to find ways to  transform STEM to STEAM.
  • Timeline: Ongoing
  • Cost: $9,000
  • Responsible Parties: ICCA should take the lead, strengthening existing partnerships and building new partnerships, taking advantage of the new opportunity to work with ICR Iowa.
Action 2: Enumerate the value of the arts, identify and promote the value of the “social capital” generated by the arts, and advocate for broader public funding to support the arts.
