Gloucester’s Cultural Strategy – Be Part of the Conversation

Gloucester’s Cultural Strategy has launched, but the conversation doesn’t end here. 

Over the past year, residents, artists, community organisations, businesses and partners have shared their ideas, experiences and ambitions for Gloucester’s cultural future, helping to inform the Cultural Strategy. 

On Wednesday 15th July 2026, Gloucester City Council will review the Cultural Strategy at Cabinet, setting out a shared vision for culture in the city over the next 10 years and demonstrating its commitment to culture. 

Now we want to explore how that vision can become part of everyday life. Join us for a conversation about what matters most to our communities and how we can work together to bring the strategy to life. 

Join us on 8th September 2026, 3–5pm, for our first city-wide conversation. 

The structured session will run from 3–5pm, followed by an informal drop-in chat from 5pm onwards for anyone who’d like to continue the conversation. 

Please RSVP via the link here.

If you can’t attend, you can still share your thoughts by answering questions on our form here.
