City officials have been looking at ways to help boost the Arts District over the last year and a half. One key finding from previous studies is that there are concerns about creative spaces and artists leaving the Arts District.
The city has made several recommendations as part of their master plan, which includes expanding the Arts District boundaries, form a Business Improvement District to support Arts District initiatives, create new spaces for artists to teach, train, and create, and establish affordable places for artists to live.
