Abstract: The frameworks for regional and remote arts funding and delivery have shifted along a continuum of community ownership to fly-in-fly-out arts events, and with each change, the approaches to community consultation and project evaluation have also changed. What has not changed significantly is the underlying belief that regional and remote communities need arts and culture brought to them, and that urban arts events can be transplanted into these communities. This chapter explores methods and processes which aim to place the people most affected by community programmes at the heart of the design and development of the programmes and at the centre of funding strategies. The concerns and capacity of the community need to be the primary source for guidance in delivering impactful and sustainable arts and cultural events in under-served communities.
