What is the future of the arts in New Westminster?

Well, the City of New Westminster has just released its draft arts strategy, a document that could possibly guide the future and growth of the arts in the community.

The city is now looking for feedback on the draft plan. On Thursday, April 26 from 5 to 7 p.m., the city is hosting an open house to discuss the plan and to collect feedback from residents.

The event begins with a half-hour-long presentation followed by an hour-long open house. Guests will be able to review the draft strategy, ask questions and provide feedback to the city. It’s happening at Anvil Centre, 777 Columbia St., on the fourth floor.

Once complete, the arts strategy will guide the city’s arts community for the next five years.
