What Do We Mean by Culture?

We all have our own ideas of what culture means. It has often
been associated with ballet, theatre, museums but in
Richmondshire culture includes a very wide range of everyday
activity.
For us culture includes all of the following
activity:
Archives, Characteristic design and building, Choirs and
bands, clothing and fashion, Countryside pursuits, Creative
industries, Customs & traditions, Film, television & radio,
Food and drink, Historic environment, History and memory, Landscape
and nature, Language & dialect, Libraries, Museums &
galleries, Music, Night-life, Performing arts, Play, Reading,
Spirituality and beliefs, Sports, Tourism, Visual arts, Writing and
storytelling.
In order to support the development of culture in
Richmondshire we have developed a Cultural
Strategy. To deliver this strategy the Council works in
partnership with Richmondshire Cultural Consortium.
