dc.description.abstract | The City of Eugene, Oregon, is revitalizing much of its downtown spaces as part of a broader revitalization plan throughout the immediate region. As part of this development, the city is exploring what elements, if any, from the cultural planning strategy of implementing an arts and culture district would be beneficial in building upon its existing cultural assets and increasing its vitality and prosperity. In the 2014-2015 academic year, a team of graduate students from the University of Oregon’s Arts and Administration Program (AAD), led by the AAD Program Director, partnered with the Cultural Services Division of the City of Eugene to develop a professional project that addressed the research interests of individual students as well as those of city officials. Building on existing studies, reports, and initiatives already underway, the professional project team sought to identify and articulate strategies for cultivating a sustainable arts and culture district in the City of Eugene. The team explored diverse elements of arts and culture districts, considered how such a district would best be defined for Eugene, and examined how an arts and culture district might best be implemented so that it would maintain the city’s unique identity while contributing to its long-term sustainable development. | en_US |
