Creating cultural cities.
|
Take a city. Add creative people. Build a theatre and an art gallery. And in theory at least the result should be culture; a place which is intellectually stimulating and rich in everything the arts have to offer.
But it isn't quite that simple. Every town wants to nurture creativity but the realities of how to achieve that are often complex.
