Back in February we invited local artists and organisations to fill in a survey for us, based around the Visual Arts that is currently on offer in Halton, and how people view its importance, on an individual and organisational level. This information was gathered so that we could plan how Hazlehurst develops over the next few years and where best to focus on developing. We always intended to share the results, as we feel it's important to be as open as possible.
We had 79 responses to the survey, a few from organisations and the rest where individual responses from people that live/work/study in Halton or have an interest in Halton.
We shall look at the organisational responses first, and if you are a local organisation reading these results and feel like you would like to share some more thoughts, please get in touch! This is just the start of the conversations we would like to have.
Take a look through the responses, do you agree with the results? (16 slides)
Now we look at the responses from individuals, if you have any other thoughts after seeing these results, please get in touch with your thoughts.
There are 29 slides to look through
Our final section is based on the 'Feedback/Thoughts' final question of the survey, which was really interesting to read. Do they inspire more ideas and/or nods of agreement?
There are 14 slides to look through
Also here is a sneak peak at the exhibition that was created as part of the Research and Development project funded by Arts Council England.
Finally a big THANK YOU - we have already started to implement some of the thoughts and suggestions into our current plans and we have ideas for some of the rest.
