CULTURAL ARTS<br />
MASTER PLAN IN THE<br />
WORKS TO DEFINE<br />
FUTURE OFFERINGS<br />
In March <strong>2021</strong>, the Greenwood<br />
Village Arts and Humanities Council<br />
(GVAHC) conducted a survey to gain<br />
input from residents as to what<br />
cultural arts offerings they would like<br />
to see provided in Greenwood Village.<br />
Whether it’s an art class at the Curtis<br />
Center for the Arts, a gallery exhibit, a<br />
concert, or a special outdoor event,<br />
the Village requested resident input to<br />
determine a long-term Cultural Arts<br />
Plan and programs for the Village. For<br />
convenience, a printed survey was<br />
mailed to all residents to complete, or<br />
residents could complete a survey<br />
online at greenwoodvillagevoices.com.<br />
Of nearly 6,775 residential<br />
households in the Village, 713 surveys<br />
were completed, representing nearly a<br />
10.5% response rate.<br />
Questions on the survey provided<br />
residents the opportunity to rank their<br />
preferences for attending activities in<br />
four main areas — Performing Arts,<br />
Visual Arts, Arts/Education, and<br />
Cultural/Heritage and activities. Live<br />
music followed by visual arts, theater<br />
and arts education were most favored<br />
by respondents. Respondents were<br />
also asked about what performing arts<br />
offerings they would like to see, and<br />
adult music, adult theater, and<br />
comedy shows came in as the top<br />
three. Lastly, residents would like to<br />
see more art exhibits, art fairs, and<br />
cultural programs such as Hollywood,<br />
Independent and Documentary films.<br />
