Acton Cultural Arts Strategic Plan and Art Inventory

The Town of Acton’s Economic Development Office is partnering with MAPC’s Arts & Culture Team to create a Cultural Arts Strategic Plan and an Art Inventory for Acton. The plan will synthesize community priorities, identify ways to strengthen municipal support for public art and creative activity, and establish a simple system to track and share Acton’s arts and culture assets. This work builds on prior MAPC efforts in Acton, including the Regional Trails Creative Placemaking Strategy, Making it Public for Municipalities, the South Acton Vision and Action Plan, the Powder Mill Road Corridor Initiative, and “How to Do Business in Acton.” The process will grow a network of local partners, raise awareness of cultural assets, and support policy and partnership improvements that help arts and culture thrive.
