CULTURAL COMMISSION |
|
| |
|

Cultural Services assists the Directorate of Culture and Heritage to introduce initiatives for the conservation, promotion and extension of culture. The aim is to add value and improve the quality of life of all communities in the Western Cape, be it in the form of one act plays in rural areas, workshops in townships, art or craft exhibitions in various towns or festivals at different venues. The component supports and encourages innovative projects, which have the potential to attract and involve the broader public and seek to unite communities and foster tolerance and understanding.
The component's function is to preserve, promote and develop arts and culture through projects in the following areas:
- the performing, visual and literary arts,
- the natural or human sciences,
- cultural- historical fields
- activities encompassing the youth's cultural awareness.
The component works closely with arts and culture organisations and provides advice to projects, administers funding them and is involved with a range of community projects and organizations every year. It also administers, on behalf of the Western Cape Cultural Commission, seven cultural facilities which are available to the public.
