Burlington consulting community on new culture plan
Consultation is underway for a new City of Burlington culture plan. The new plan is intended to guide the growth of, as well as the city's investment in, local arts organizations, programs and events over the next decade. The plan and its recommendations will involve a variety of municipal boards, local artists, community festivals and events.

The project is expected to look at a broad range of programs and services offered by the city, its culture boards and partners, including: Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request.
