Arts Council England’s arts debate website re-launches
Arts Council England’s re-vamped arts debate site will provide news and information on the Arts Council’s public value programme - one of the key ways the Arts Council is taking forward the findings of the arts debate.
The arts debate was a major inquiry into how people value the arts, their priorities for public funding and their expectations of the Arts Council. The findings of the arts debate led the Arts Council to develop a new mission statement of 'great art for everyone' and to identify five key outcomes of excellence, innovation, reach, engagement and diversity, which underpin their plan for 2008-11.
To continue the journey and build on the momentum of the arts debate they have now established a long-term public value programme. The aim of the public value programme is to put public value at the heart of everything they do, ensuring we focus on the things that really matter to people.
You can find out about the programme as a whole and all their public value projects and activities on the new site.
