the survey was launched in response to a 2022 report by the municipal benchmarking network canada, which continues to rank windsor among the lowest nationally when it comes to per-capita arts funding.
“ i think it has to do with the history of windsor being a community that depends on the factory as the most important way to make a living,” said alejandro tamayo, executive director of arts council windsor & region.
but michelle staadegaard, the city of windsor’s manager of culture and events, cautions that the survey did not amass enough responses to offer a real overlook of the city’s arts community.

“ we reviewed the results and look forward to discussing it further with organizations like the arts council windsor & region and other artistic organizations in the community,” said staadegaard.
