Cork City’s Local Economic and Community Plan 2024 - 2029
Expand Reach of The Arts We will expand existing, and establish new, community-led, place-based approaches to arts engagement, meaning they are specific to and led by a community of place. We will focus on communities that have fewer opportunities to experience the arts such as RAPID areas. RAPID means ‘Revitalising Areas through Planning, Investment and Development’. RAPID works with communities across Cork City focusing on areas designated as disadvantaged.
Make Most of Per Cent for Arts Scheme The Per Cent for Art scheme is a government initiative, where 1% of the cost of any publicly funded capital, infrastructural and building development can be allocated to commissioning of a work of art. We will make sure that the potential of the Per Cent for Arts Scheme is realised across all relevant public capital projects in a way that supports artists and public engagement.
