North Carolina Arts Council

This document outlines a framework for TAPS programs to achieve their objectives through various strategies. It identifies key focus areas including Program Development, Evaluation, Local Support, Community Connections, Professional Development, and Public Communications, offering a range of tactical approaches to fulfill program goals.

The strategic plan for the North Carolina Arts Council focuses on bolstering the state's arts and cultural sector through reimagined grassroots programs, expanded funding, and comprehensive support for individual artists. It champions the arts as essential to learning and student success by strengthening arts-integrated curricula and expanding traditional arts programs. The plan promotes the arts through partnerships and marketing, grows the agency's internal capacity, and rebuilds the creative sector in western North Carolina following Hurricane Helene by providing disaster relief and investing in long-term infrastructure and mental health programs.
