Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this research is three-fold. The first purpose is to develop a practical ideal model of creative capital-based approaches to cultural arts planning. The second purpose is to assess the perspectives of cultural administration and economic development experts on the model. Finally, this research will create a revised cultural arts planning model based on direct feedback from cultural administration experts. Methodology: The applied research project utilizes focused interviews to determine the soundness of the developed practical ideal model. Responses were quantified using frequency distribution. Results: The data resulting from the focused interviews in combination with the initial categories and elements of the original ideal model were reevaluated and incorporated into a revised model that consists of the following components: Attract Creative Capital, Promote Creative Capital through Economic Development, Grow Creative Capital, and Reprioritize Cultural Arts and Neighborhood Planning.
