What is Cultural Mapping?
Cultural mapping is a systematic approach to identifying, recording and classifying a community's cultural resources. A stronger knowledge base about culture in Burlington informs planning and policy, supports economic development and tourism, and expands access and participation. The goal of cultural mapping is to help a community recognize, celebrate and support cultural diversity for economic, social and regional development.
Burlington’s Cultural Map is an interactive tool that helps residents and visitors locate cultural assets throughout the city. Are you looking for an antique store, architect, dance studio, graphic designer, theatre company, art gallery, festival or event, artist studio, writer, band, photographer, music teacher, or public art in the city? This interactive map offers a new way to discover the city’s arts, cultural and heritage resources – all the places you can go to enrich your experience of Burlington.
