The Public Art Toolkit is intended as a
guide when planning a public art program
or evaluating an existing one, and
contains resources for the management of
public art projects. It will be available as a
CD-Rom and will also be available in
French shortly.
The Public Art Toolkit includes:
- Public art overview
- Different points of views
- Details on all phases of completing
a public art project/program
- Links to examples and resources
from around the world
- Detailed case studies and project
examples of varying scales
- Illustrative photos from public art
projects
- Compilation of links to key web-
based resources
From this valuable resource, communities
will gain enhanced knowledge on
planning and maintaining public art
projects and programs, and will develop
better capacity to deliver such projects
and programs.

The Cultural Planning Toolkit is a guide
for the process of cultural planning in
a community. It includes an adaptable
model and practical checklists for
navigating and charting progress.
Background material and additional
details are provided on this companion
webpage. The Planning Toolkit is also
available as a PDF in French.
The Toolkit has been developed to
encourage community leaders, planners
and local government staff to explore the
potential of cultural planning. In particular,
we hope to demonstrate how cultural
resources can support the delivery of a
spectrum of community priorities.

The Cultural Mapping Toolkit has been
designed to take you through the entire
mapping process, from creating an
inventory to drawing up and presenting
your map. The process has been broken
down into stages and steps. Each step is
accompanied by examples, checklists or
worksheets to help you get organized.
When you have finished, the working
documents will serve as a record of the
suggestions and solutions you came up
with as you went along. The Mapping
Toolkit is also available as a PDF in French.
