Cultural Olympiad for London 2012 already underway
Vanoc’s integration of culture into the 2010 Olympic sports program has been singled out for praise by the man in charge of the Cultural Olympiad and ceremonies for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Bill Morris said Burke Taylor, executive producer of Vancouver’s 2010 Cultural Olympiad, and his team have integrated the cultural side of the Olympic Games with sports “so that it does not feel like a separate offshoot.
“It feels like it comes from the same DNA,” Morris said. “One thing I’ve observed that your team has done so brilliantly is that when you come to Vancouver to the games and the lead up to the games, you can’t miss it: you see the cultural program all over the place.
