Artzone Terms of Reference
In 1999 and again in 2004 Maroondah City Council developed and maintained a database of artists, arts organisations and arts service providers living and working in Maroondah for a period of time. The purpose of the database was to promote the scope and diversity of arts opportunities, resources and services available within Maroondah.
In 2009, Council’s Arts and Cultural Services Team identified and reaffirmed that to best meet the needs of the local arts community it is necessary to connect with that community to establish needs and to broker information sharing. This will be achieved through Artzone, which will consist of an arts register, a quarterly e-newsletter and a network.
Artzone aims to develop a strong arts community by playing a key role in the development and maintenance of an integrated, coordinated and collaborative service system that works towards the improvement of service provision to the Maroondah arts community.
