Featured Project
A CONSULTATION PROCESS FOR THE PJAZZA TEATRU RJAL INFRASTRUCTURAL PROJECT
Culture Venture was awarded a public tender to advise and coordinate the public consultation process of the Pjazza Teatru Rjal infrastructural project. As per its June 2017 electoral manifesto the Maltese Government announced that the infrastructural issues surrounding Pjazza Teatru Rjal venue in Valletta will be addressed for the space to be transformed into a fully-equipped performing arts space. The cultural significance of the space, its envisaged impact on the cultural sector and overall potential externalities require a meticulous process of an open and transparent public consultation that would inform the final decisions for the restructuring of the venue. The consultation process will source input on the way forward from internal and external stakeholders, experts from relevant multidisciplinary backgrounds and the general public.
The project is envisaged to be completed in 14 months.
