cultural districts
Creative community zones
Cultural districts are designated urban areas where arts venues, galleries, theaters, and creative businesses cluster.
Cities establish them to concentrate cultural activity, attract tourism, and revitalize neighborhoods: The old warehouse zone was rezoned as a cultural district.
The designation often brings tax incentives and funding for arts organizations.
