Appendix 1

Appendix 1

Once this initial ‘discovery’ phase of research and consultation was completed, a findings report was prepared and key considerations and themes identified. The findings, key considerations and themes were shared and discussed in a meeting with senior management and in two workshops with 75 artists and arts professionals. A series of ‘close inquiry’ meetings were also held with expert informants from within the Council, the arts and culture sector and other relevant areas.

Following these two phases of research and consultation, a draft Arts and Culture Strategy was developed. This was then shared for review and feedback on Cork City Council’s public consultation portal for a period from 14 April to 5 May 2022.
