The City of Santa Ana adopted a 10-year Arts and Culture Master Plan in 2016 that the community helped to shape with input from numerous discussions held throughout the city. It is a comprehensive plan with many initiatives that provide a direction for Santa Ana’s arts future. We are pressing forward with identifying those initiatives that will shape the direction we take as a community over the next several years, and we need to hear what is most important to you!

You will have the opportunity to:

• Meet residents, artists, community partners, Arts and Culture Commissioners, and Arts and Culture Office staff
• Share ideas and collaborate
• Share information about projects in your neighborhoods
• Learn about exciting events taking place throughout the city

Trained arts instructors will hold a free children’s art workshop at each event. Food and refreshments will also be provided. Participants are encouraged to review the Arts and Culture Master Plan prior to attending the listening sessions. Copies of the plan are available for download here.
