Cultural & Economic Development

The Cultural and Economic Development Division was created to help stabilize and diversify our economy and strengthen our cultural institutions with a goal of becoming the Southeast’s premier urban village. The division facilitates partnerships to promote the cultural institutions and businesses of Winter Park to regional and international visitors. The initial focus has been on promoting the central business district surrounding Park Avenue.

In addition to creating an Economic Development Advisory Board consisting of a diverse group from Winter Park businesses to provide guidance on economic issues, the division works closely with the Orlando Orange County Convention and Visitors Bureau and other organizations to promote cultural attractions and businesses in Winter Park.

The division formed the Winter Park Cultural Consortium to engender cooperative effort among the cultural organizations of the city. The consortium includes Winter Park organizations and supporters, museums, the Winter Park Public Library, the Chamber of Commerce, the Park Avenue Area Association, Rollins College and many others. The division and the consortium strive to give all Winter Park citizens an opportunity to contribute and experience the joy of participating in meaningful community activities.
