The Cork City Council Arts and Culture Strategy 2022 – 2026 identifies five areas of strategic priority which represent a range of ambitions for arts and culture in Cork. These priorities do not exist in isolation, rather complement and reinforce each other to advance our long-term goals.

As well as these five strategic priorities, the twin themes of Representation and Environmental Sustainability will course through all of the work of Cork City Council Arts Office, informing the actions that we will take to achieve our objectives.

A triad of enabling practices will contribute to our success in meeting our strategic priorities: Partnership, Communication and Engagement, and Learning .
