CULTURAL ARTS<br />

SURVEY RESULTS<br />

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 />
