Tourists all over the world welcome unique creative experiences that enrich and inspire them when they travel. This is called "Creative Tourism," and it is different from other types of tourism. But why is it needed, and how does one go about developing it? You'll find answers to these questions and more in this book which is based on and draws from the proceedings of a Santa Fe & UNESCO International Conference on Creative Tourism. Held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA, from September 28 to October 2, 2008, this first-of-a-kind conference brought together delegates from sixteen countries around the world to engage in a global conversation about how best to leverage the tourism sector for community and economic development. In other words, how tourism can best be organized and practiced to enhance economic benefits to cities, provinces, and countries globally. Conceived, in large part, through the efforts of members of UNESCO's Creative Cities Network, the conference was designed to bridge theory and practice, as well as provide a forum for sharing ideas and best practices. In this book you will find not only a collection of essays by some of the "thought pioneers" in the emerging and still evolving field of Creative Tourism, but also a wide array of resources, including many practical examples and illustrations of Creative Tourism in practice from around the world. At a time when activities and initiatives aimed at promoting tourism in a competitive economy have become essential, the notion of Creative Tourism captured in this book offers a life line that cannot and should not be ignored. "Creative Tourism: A Global Conversation" should be required reading for all tourism and community/economic/cultural development professionals, artists, elected and appointed public officials, and tourists who are seeking destinations that offer customized, creative, experiential, authentic, and meaningful experiences that are tied to the uniqueness and "spirit" of a place.

Nice sturdy quality!

I made my own shelves. Stained the wood & needed brackets. Ordered a variety, different styles. These were the winner. The really added to the look, style of the shelves. Made the shelves beautiful! These reasonably priced brackets make my shelves look expensive and super high quality.

Beautiful! Exactly what I was looking for!
Size: 12 Inch, Color: Gold, Size: 12 Inch, Color: Gold
Sturdy, well contructed, and an even natural gold finish. Come with two different wall anchors and brass screws. Installation is easy. Just take your time measuring and drilling holes. I purchased finished white shelves from the closet section of home depot, $7 a piece. Gives them a nice finished look. They measure 3/4” x 11.75” x 24”. The brackets are 12” deep so there is a slight gap at the front but its not noticeable. Highly reccomend.

Find something else
Size: 4 Inch, Color: Black
I wish zero stars was an option. The quality was mediocre at best with 2 of the brackets not a proper 90 degrees and the supplied screws do NOT fit the supplied drywall anchors. They are WAY too small. What a complete waste of time and energy. I stupidly was willing to overlook the 2 defective brackets because I really only needed 3 for my shelf. That’s when I discovered that the supplied screws are too small for the supplied anchors. Now I have 6 holes in my wall that need to be patched from the 3 brackets I tried to use. Luckily I was able to back the anchors out of the wall so I could fully return this garbage to Amazon for a refund. Find something else and pass this by. Why can’t anything be easy anymore? At least Amazon has a good return policy but I really wish they would find a way to vett these products better before allowing them to list on the platform. Tomorrow off to UPS to return.

Cute and functional

I wanted something to spruce up a corner in my kitchen and these did the trick. They were easy to install and look great. I use mine for small items and they hold up no problem!
