Arts and Culture Strategy Development
The City of Langford is creating an exciting new Arts and Culture Strategy. We’ve partnered with Patricia Huntsman Culture + Communication, a leading arts and culture consulting firm, to help shape this important plan guided by the community.
As one of Canada’s fastest-growing cities, Langford is in a unique position to celebrate creativity and diversity. This strategy will help us grow an equitable, vibrant arts and culture scene, one that reflects who we are and welcomes everyone.
The plan will also support Langford’s economy and will guide how we support artists, host events, and create spaces that bring people together through creativity.
The Arts and Culture Strategy is expected to be complete by May 2026.
The Draft Arts and Culture Strategy is Ready for Your Review!
The Draft Strategy sets a shared vision for arts and culture in the community, helping to position and celebrate Langford as an inclusive, diverse destination for the arts. As the last phase of public consultation, this questionnaire is an opportunity for you to provide your input.
The survey closes end of day, April 19, 2026.
