Marianne Garrah made a presentation to council on the need for an Arts Coordinator/Council/Director under the Culture and Recreation heading for the town of Jasper. There’s no go-to person for arts in Jasper, said Garrah, and the “arts are being overlooked a bit.” Council requested that she refine her proposal and come back to them in the future, although they are not opposed to having some sort of arts related staff member that would coordinate events for the town.
