Woodlands Arts Survey

We need your help by completing a short-online survey. We know that there are lots of creative types in Woodlands, but hope to map this a bit more fully. The results of our survey will be used to inform our thinking in relation to the development of Woodlands Workspace at our new gap site of 127 West Princes Street, and to help support funding bid(s) we are working on to support more arts activity in the garden. The survey is available at survey monkey.com and only takes 2 mins to complete..
