In February 2020, the Town of Superior Board of Trustees approved the Creative Placemaking Master Plan, "Inspired by Nature," as recommended by the Cultural Arts and Public Spaces (CAPS) Advisory Committee. Master Plan Consulting firm, Happy City, worked with the CAPS Committee and the community from June 2019 through February 2020 to develop the Creative Placemaking Master Plan. The Plan creates a common vision for the role arts, culture and creativity will play in the Town and will guide the CAPS Committee work plan for the next five years (2020-2025). The recommendations are based on extensive community input, research of arts industry best practices and trends, analysis of the Town’s creative assets, discovery of new opportunities, analysis of existing funding sources and research of funding opportunities.

Thanks to those who joined the conversation to help us shape Superior!
