INTERMISSIONDC: A community event on DC, culture, and planning

The DC Office of Planning is kicking off an eight-month effort to draft a Cultural Plan for Washington DC.   When completed, the DC Cultural Plan will lay out a vision and recommendations on how the government and its partners can build upon, strengthen and invest in the people, places, communities and ideas that define culture within the nation’s capital. 

INTERMISSIONDC seeks to bring together residents, artists and planners to engage with one another on issues related to cultural development, preservation, production, expression and consumption. It will consist of a series of structured and unstructured interactive activities, using different media, which allow participants to share their reflections, suggestions and ideas. It is the first of many public events that the DC Office of Planning will host to capture community insight as the Cultural Plan is being drafted. There is no cost for this event.

The DC Cultural Plan is being developed in collaboration with the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, and the DC Office of Cable Television, Film, Music and Entertainment, through the support of the DC Council.
