| Abstract | The recent discussion regarding contemporary urban regeneration has underlined the increasing role of art and cultural agglomeration as an essential part of a progressive agenda for local development. In fact, there is a good deal of literature which is related to specific and finite cultural strategies. Although scholars, in some cases, may suggest other perspectives, their value narrows to a comprehensive evaluation regarding the possible interpretation of cultural agglomeration in respect of urban regeneration. Accordingly, this study, by using an interdisciplinary systemic approach based on the clustering of cultural carriers, developed the cultural strategies under a six concepts scheme. The study then, through developing a method based on modes and development approach of cultural agglomeration, recategorized the six mentioned strategies into three major categories of cultural strategies, to find out their contribution in the process of urban regeneration. Overall, the study revealed the extent of cultural agglomeration as a method of developing cultural strategies in urban regeneration. |

| They may aim to boost economic regeneration, enhance city competitiveness and bring civic pride. . | In general, cultural places can be manifested as new flagship projects and heritage buildings with different characteristics. . | Mostly they are built on a longstanding tradition and support local cultural industries. . | These areas can function within the art industry as places of art consumption and also contribute to enhanced arts production. . | The ability of these projects to accelerate art developments relies heavily on the nearby environment. . | (c) place-oriented strategy, for example, visiting heritage buildings or flagship projects as part of the creative environment; . | Considering the role of the cultural production in boosting local economy and enhancing the social identity of the local communities, this model of urban regeneration relies mostly on the creative industry strategies. . | The recent discussion regarding contemporary urban regeneration has underlined the increasing role of art and cultural agglomeration as an essential part of a progressive agenda for local development. . | In a city, the creative classes work as cultural agents who progressively create the human, cultural and aesthetic development of the quarter in which they live, in so far as creating a diverse and pluralistic district. . | Often in this category of strategy, it is the local art councils who act as the promoter or originator of spontaneous sociocultural movements, and they may subsequently contribute towards resolving some of the problems which low-income residents are faced with, by bringing more business into the area and also creating a more socially inclusive atmosphere. . | Problems arising with economic restructuring and pressures of globalization have provoked cities to exploit cultural resources in an agglomerated mode in their efforts to boost their economy, regenerate their urban quarters and increase their competitiveness (Richards & Palmer, 2010). . | Recalling the prevalence of culture and cultural activities in urban development agendas, cultural agglomeration, the clustering of existing cultural features and facilities, is, without any doubt, an important accoutrement of economic success, which also reinforces social solidarity in cities. . | The model manifests itself by hosting big cultural projects and mega cultural events though entrepreneurial strategies. . | This strategy encompasses cities which are looking to distinguish themselves by developing a specific cultural theme. . | This attempt could involve preparing adequate and suitable spaces for the creative classes and also investing in cultural institutions and bohemian cultural quarters. . | These two strategies, when applied, serve to reinforce local community identity and strengthen local cultural production. . | The main focus or aim of this study was to develop cultural strategies through the clustering of cultural resources used to frame the models of urban regeneration. . |
