Community Survey
As we begin a New year, the Otis Cultural Council needs to collect input from town residents regarding the programs* we have offered in the past, and programs that residents would like for us to sponsor in the future. To that end, we are sending a short survey to all residents. Please let us know what you think are valuable cultural programs for our town. In case you did not receive the survey via email from Town Hall, there is a link on this page to open the survey. Paper surveys are available at Town Hall if you prefer.
In case you don’t know what our council has funded in the past, here is a short list of past programs:
Field trips for students at Farmington River Elementary School
After-school drama production at FRRES
Photography & music classes for FRRES students
Musical instrument loaner program at FRRES
Purchase of materials for Diverse Otis project
Nature programs for local schools and at Old Baldy Wildlife Sanctuary in Otis
Notice Otis lecture series
Pottery demonstration at the Library Fair
Music performances at Library Fair and for the summer reading program
Donations to many local events featuring opera, jazz, history, art exhibits, theater,
Support for the Indigenous Peoples series of events in 2022
Technology classes at the library and at the Council on Aging
Purchase of equipment for town use from funds earned by our recycling committee
Thank you for taking the time to respond!
* All programs sponsored by our committee must conform to our mission statement, which is as follows:
“The Otis Cultural Council mission is to promote cultural access, education, and diversity in the arts, humanities, and interpretive sciences for Otis residents of all ages, and to promote communication and community-building in our town.”
