Abstract
This paper will look at the San Fernando Valley's history, existing social,economic and political landscapes as well as the existing cultural assetsin the region to determine if a community cultural plan is a feasible approach to revitalize and strengthen the area's social, civic life and economy. Although having a rich history and several concentrated areas possessing cultural assets, the San Fernando Valley lacks local leadership that focuses and advocates for its growth in terms of arts and culture, therefore making it unlikely that a community cultural plan will be developed anytime soon. However, a community cultural plan for the San Fernando Valley can be created through the efforts of grassroots planning and advocacy by a network of local organizations. The methods used for this research included an array of interviews with local art leaders, city officials and the current landscape and challenges in the community cultural planning literature.
