The Regional Arts & Culture Plan is now available! The plan is the result of months of collaboration with artists, community leaders, cultural organizations, and residents from across the region. It provides a long-term roadmap for strengthening quality of life, supporting the creative economy, and elevating arts and culture as a core component of regional development.
You can find the full regional arts plan, a short executive summary, and a recording of the launch event from December on the Forge East Central Indiana website at grow.forgeeci.com/arts-and-culture-plan/.
This plan reflects a simple but powerful truth about our region: we make things here—from art and music to places, ideas, and communities. We invite you to explore the plan, share it with others, and consider how its goals and strategies might support your work. MAP board and task force members were privileged to help shape the vision and look forward to continuing this work together.
The regional arts plan directly correlates to Muncie’s Creative Space Action Plan. The Creative Space Action Plan (CSAP), which outlines actionable steps to expand affordable creative spaces, enhance public engagement, and support the arts as a driving force for economic growth and quality of life in Muncie based on extensive input from residents, artists, and local organizations. It is available at https://www.cfmdin.org/news/creative-space-action-plan.
