Up to eight City Vista Host Sites representing the local business ecology will be chosen by an expert panel through considering the Expressions of Interest (EOIs) against a set of prioritisation criteria:
- Reach: ability to maximise the profile of City Vistas and engagement of local workers as the target audience through the site
- Streetscape: opportunity to animate the area at street level, particularly those sites most impacted by Covid-19 (for example retail, food & beverage sites) and those previously unused for creative activity
- Location: proximity to key Culture Mile public realm priority sites in order to animate key routes and gateways to the area (see map right)
- Depth of engagement: businesses proposing to run supplementary activities that will enhance the impact of the City Vistas exhibition will be prioritised, for example through artist talks, workshops, tours
- Inclusion: opportunity to enhance inclusion, engaging diverse public audiences, staff and/or artists
