Since the foundation began in October 1995, it has been devoted to ecological conservation, local cultural asset preservation, cultural field study, and artistic activities. By community empowerment, it promotes community development. However, due to environmental factors, it encounters the obstacle of development, and attempts to transform as a local culture industry, with sustainable development. 　　This study treats the Gomach Cultural Promotion Association as the subject, and adopts literature review and in-depth interviews. By interviewing local cultural workers, public servants, and members of the Gomach Cultural Promotion Association, it analyzes the development of local culture industry in Chinshui Township, the current development of the Gomach Cultural Promotion Association, and evaluates the feasibility of local culture industry as the operational strategy. 　　The research findings are shown, as follows: (1) The current development of local culture industry in Chinshui Township: It has rich and diverse cultural characteristics, and in recent years, the attention of the public sector on culture is the most significant advantage.
