Great Western Park draft public arts strategy

Background

Great Western Park is a new development near to Milton Interchange, where 3300 new dwellings and associated community buildings are being built over the next few years. The councils have secured some £600,000 from the developers to be spent on public art on the site. Public art can take many forms so the aim of the strategy is to recommend what kinds of art should be used, what materials and colours should be used and where.

An arts consultant, Peter Anderson Studio, working for the councils spoke in depth to some local residents, councilors, young and older people, businesses and others to get opinions to inform the strategy. An online and paper survey were also made available for people to give their comments on the draft strategy. (7.8 MB)

What happens next?

All the comments received were considered and are being used inform the final arts strategy for Great Western Park.
