Open Conversation 2021 Strategic Plan

The Arts Council wants to hear from residents about their
thoughts and visions for the future of arts and culture in Long Beach.

We have embarked on a planning process that is informed by public input and
will determine our work over a 5 year period, starting in 2021. It is critical that we
have as many voices in our process and our goal is to host at least 100
individuals per meeting, intentionally aiming to ensure inclusive and equitable
participation for all Long Beach communities.

Open Conversations are informal events where the Arts Council brings people together to discuss arts issues.
