  • 1986 Chicago Cultural Plan
    The Chicago Cultural Plan is funded by agrant from the Chicago Community Trust with additional fimding from the National Endowment for the Arts. ATR BUTE TO CH CAGO CULTURE Over 150 years, Chicago has evolved from a small prairie city to a dynamic cultural center of international status. Therefore, it is fitting that we celebrate Chicago's Sesquicentennial by presenting the city with its first comprehensive, cohesive strategy for nurturing our artistic and cultural resources. Chicago is alive with culture. Every corner of the city is literally bursting with cultural and artistic activity - with neighborhood dance troupes and community theater, jazz and blues musicians and symphony orchestras, sculptors, painters and writers - all contributing to the great excitement and ethnic diversity that makes Chicago so remarkable. But culture is a precious resource that requires careful attention. It is an integral part of Chicago's spirit and an underpinning of Chicago's economic well-being. Yet this city has never before developed a long-range, coordinated plan for culture and the arts. Now, thanks to the work of so many dedicated Chicagoans, we have one. f commend the diligence and vision of those who pursued the development of the plan, in particular Commissioner Fred Fine, Advisory Board Chair Jessie Woods, Planning Committee Chair Robert Hutchins and Director of the Plan Michael C. Dorl. f especially salute the thousands of Chicagoans and hundreds of organizations that contributed their time and ideas to the development of this plan. With the Chicago Cultural Plan, we pay tribute to the cultural greatness of Chicago and pledge to enhance and showcase that greatness for generations to come.
