Sažetak
This paper examines the existing cultural infrastructure and contemporary arts and cultural activities in the town Korčula during a season (calendar year) - including music and literature festivals and congresses, exhibition, workshops, publisihing etc. The research is based on mixed methods -content analyses and survey. The main aims of the research were to explore the role of local people in the town's cultural production and to explain the meaning of arts and culturefor the city of korčula and how heritage and heritage spaces have been mobilized in cultural and economic resources. The research shows how the Moreška, a traditional mock battle with swords and the city walls have been transformed into tourist attractions. Although the town has a respectable number of infrastructures and events, most of them are produced for non-local people in the summer period.
