Kitchener Artists & Creative Economy
Artists Build Kitchener
I strongly support Kitchener, a city where artists can afford to live, create and build a career.
I will try to expand opportunities for local artists to work on public projects, create affordable artist spaces, bring art into every neighborhood and connect artists with businesses and economic-development opportunities.
Create more paid opportunities for local artists.
Increase access to affordable creative space.
Bring arts and culture into every neighborhood.
Help artists develop sustainable businesses.
Strengthen public art and creative placemaking.
Connect artists with local businesses and economic-development opportunities.
Measure the economic and social impact of the creative sector.
When Kitchener invests in its artists, Kitchener should get something back, a stronger economy, more vibrant neighborhoods and a city with a unique identity.
