ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts related to topic discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The new insights regarding the arts and events throughout the book will be discussed against a background of understanding and safeguarding cultural diversity, encouraging links to cultural identity or heritage; offering enjoyable recreational, leisure and touristic experiences; and attention to creating opportunities for professional, personal and economic growth. The development of public cultural policy and subsequent actions by government agencies inevitably has a trickle-down effect on arts events in that public cultural policy need not be held by the public sector, but still able to reflect aspects of public policy, which can ensure public promotion. Travelling blockbuster exhibitions have been a successful initiative for the private sector, other forms of private arts events continue to appear and evolve. The leadership in deciding the vision for the event has a big impact on the content offered, including possible gaps.
