Textile created by the Women's Mental Health Drop-In 2 3 1 Foreword his is the second Arts Strategy produced by Merton. The TStrategy fits within the broader new Cultural Strategy 2007- 2010, and supports the Council’s Business Plan, which in turn contributes to the Community Plan which is the responsibility of the Merton Partnership. The Arts Development Team in consultation with the Arts Consultative Forum, our strategic partners, the community, private and voluntary arts organisations and providers has produced this Strategy. It clearly states our priorities, acts as a co-ordinating tool for the development of art activities and venues across the borough. By providing strong leadership we can maximise external funding, support our strategic partners and creative industries, avoid duplication, encourage partnership working and support Merton’s residents who wish to participate in cultural events or build their skills and employment possibilities in the cultural sector. By 2010, this strategy will have made a significant impact on the health and sustainability of our communities by: G Improving arts education in Merton’s schools and providing accreditation G Strengthening and promoting our festivals, events, venues, and artist work spaces G Settling the foundations for Merton’s full participation in the 2012 Olympics G Building cohesive communities and improving mental and physical health G Improving enterprise and business skills or artists and creative industries G Celebrating Merton’s diverse heritage This strategy will deliver these aims and sets out our priorities for the arts in Merton.
