TORONTO, July 27 /CNW/ - The Ontario government is involving artists in building strong and vibrant cultural communities by establishing a Minister's Advisory Council for Arts and Culture, Minister of Culture Madeleine Meilleur announced today.
"Our government is committed to creating an open forum for discussion and to listening to the culture community," said Meilleur. "The advisory council
will give us an opportunity to hear the views and seek advice from the arts and cultural community."
The council will focus on building and sustaining strong and vibrant culture communities specifically through the arts, cultural industries, heritage and library sectors. The council will recognize the importance of
Ontario's artists and help create a new respect for their social and economic contribution.
The council is composed of 13 members who represent the culture community throughout Ontario and reflect a range of backgrounds and interests.
"I look forward to working with the minister and the council members to help build and sustain strong and vibrant culture communities across Ontario," said Dr. Jim Fleck, council chairman.
"This council will allow the Ontario government to make Ontario's artists part of building strong and liveable communities," said Meilleur. "Ultimately,
this means a higher quality of life for the people of Ontario."
