Cambridge Arts and Culture Master Plan

Recognizing the importance of arts and culture for the future growth of our community, the City of Cambridge introduced the Cambridge Arts and Culture Master Plan. The Plan ensures future arts and culture services meet the changing needs of our residents. It also outlines ways to better serve the cultural community, which has its own specific needs.

Cambridge has an Arts and Culture Advisory Committee to help Council make decisions related to arts and cultural activities and programs in the community.

There's also a Cultural Awards Committee which organizes the distributions of Cambridge's cultural awards and bursaries.
