Cultural Strategic Plan

The Cultural Strategic Plan completes the important work of:
- Defining Pickering's identity and mapping out its cultural assets and resources;
- Collecting input from Pickering's valued partners that define its cultural opportunities, priorities and identity; and
- Developing a comprehensive strategy to reach Pickering's economic, environmental and cultural goals.
The Plan include the following sections:
- Why Cultural Planning?
- Research & Public Input
- Vision & Strategic Directions
Revisions to the Cultural Strategic Plan are currently underway. The development of these new plans will collectively guide the next decade (2026-2036) of Pickering’s arts, culture, museum and public art programs and services. To learn more, visit our consultation page.
