Amber Danielson, Director of the Marshalltown Arts and Cultural Alliance, presented the Arts master plan at the City Council meeting this week.  She joined KFJB and first shared that this isn’t a new plan, but built off of ideas from the Parks and Rec plan, downtown master plan, trails master plan, and others.

Amber brought the community into the plan through focus groups, online survey that was offered in over 21 languages, interviews with community members, and more.

Those themes are, revitalize over restore, Build Bridges, Activate Hope, Elevate Youth, and Heritage of Innovation.  If you want to learn more about this plan, you can visit artsandculturealliance.org, Amber invites all to look it over.  You can also stop by her office at the MAC.
