Culture is about who we are, how we define ourselves and how we make meaning of the world around us. Participation in and access to a vibrant arts program ensures that Greater Bendigo continues to thrive as a creative, innovative and connected community.
The City of Greater Bendigo supports its creative communities through a range of arts based programs, services and initiatives that contribute to the City's vision of becoming the world's most liveable community.
