The Culture Strategy is dedicated to celebrating, supporting, and enhancing our borough’s creative and cultural sector. Developed in collaboration with our local community,  the strategy seeks to build on the cultural assets, opportunities and activities in the borough. 

It will create a step change in what is offered, strengthening the borough’s identity as a cultural destination. Our aim is to further develop Barnet as a place with a diverse,  accessible, and enriching cultural offer for residents and visitors to enjoy for many years to come.

Where are we in the development of the strategy ?

We are now at the final stages of producing the Culture Strategy. We expect the document to be published in early autumn 2024. 

If you have any questions please contact scott.milne@barnet.gov.uk

    We asked

    We asked you to apply to be part of the Culture Strategy Steering Group. This group will oversee the development of the Culture Strategy to ensure it sets out a programme for cultural development that reflects the needs of our borough and that the whole community can feel ownership of.

    We asked you to answer some questions that focused on:

    • why you thought you were suitable to be on the steering group
    • your knowledge and experience
    • your connection to Barnet and how engaged you are with our local communities.

    You said

    We received a high volume of responses, with 55 individuals applying. The standard of these applications was extremely high and provided us with a broad spectrum of knowledge and expertise.


    We did

    We put in place fair and transparent methods to select members of the steering group. This assessment of applications was conducted by two individuals who work for the council and an independent non-council representative. 16 individuals were selected to be a member of the Culture Strategy Steering Group.
