We greatly enjoyed the work of designing and refining these recommendations. On behalf of all task force members, I thank you for the opportunity to produce this report, and for appointing our group to the important mission of further cultivating a community of artistic and cultural production, vibrancy and innovation. The City of Charlottetown deserves credit for its pursuit and support of initiatives such as the 2011 Cultural Capital of Canada designation, and for recognizing the need to further develop the arts, culture and heritage sectors. Charlottetown can rightfully say it is taking a leadership role in engaging and nurturing Prince Edward Island’s arts and cultural community, and in promoting the importance of the arts in our provincial capital. Our task force has full confidence in the City’s ability to pursue these recommendations. Sincerely yours, Henk van Leeuwen Chair, City of Charlottetown Task Force on Arts and Culture cc: task force members Alan Buchanan, Jessie Inman, Ghislaine O’Hanley, Murray Murphy, Rob Oakie, Julia Sauve, Harmony Wagner, Josh Weale, Natalie Williams- Calhoun, and Darrin White 2 INTRODUCTION and BACKGROUND In October of 2011, Charlottetown Mayor Clifford Lee announced the creation of a Task Force to examine ways in which the City can deepen its support of arts and cultural activity in the provincial capital.
