Arts Council England champions, develops and invests in artistic and cultural experiences that enrich people’s lives.
They support a range of activities across the arts, museums and libraries – from theatre to digital art, reading to dance, music to literature, and crafts to collections.
Between 2011 and 2015, they will invest £1.4 billion of public money from government and an estimated £0.85 billion from the National Lottery to help create these experiences for as many people as possible across the country.
‘Arts Council support to FutureEverything enables their innovative approach to arts curation and research for the benefit of the cultural sector. Their links into programmes such as the EU-funded Media Festival group and the national AHRC Knowledge Exchange Hub are excellent examples of this.’ – Sarah Maxfield, Area Executive Director North, Arts Council England
