II. Introduction and Overview II.A. Background In 2003, hundreds of Madison residents gathered at an Arts Summit and called for the community to undertake a cultural plan. The City of Madison’s Arts Commission initiated cultural planning in 2008 by soliciting bids for a process that would “present a long range framework and an achievable 3 to 5 year course of action that reflects the cultural preferences and priorities of Madison’s citizens.” The Arts Commission selected Mary Berryman Agard & Associates and subcontractors Vandewalle & Associates and Robert Bush to undertake the work. II.B. Purpose The Madison Cultural Plan 2011 is a five-year action plan to advance Madison’s position as a center for creativity and innovation. The plan looks at the community’s arts, science, and history resources and recommends practical steps to strengthen the sector itself, to connect creative work to broader civic issues, and to increase access to creative experiences. It is about bolstering the interplay of artists, creative workers, arts and cultural institutions, and creative commercial enterprises with one another and with their consumers, donors, and investors.
