“The main thing is to be moved, to love, to hope, to tremble, to live” Auguste Rodin
Chalk, paint, the written word, stills, curtain calls, musical notes, dancing in fields…What makes your heart beat faster?
Art and culture has shaped our communities, broadened our horizons and enriched our lives and the UK has produced some of the worlds most enduring cultural offerings.
Imagine a life without the arts. A world without theatres, galleries or festivals. Without Mozart or the Beatles, Van Gogh’s Sunflowers or Warhol; without Shakespeare, Chekhov or JK Rowling. A world of grey and quiet, where technicolor doesn’t exist and walls are blank. It’s not worth thinking about.
Public investment is central to keeping the arts available and affordable to everyone in the UK, and nurturing the great artists and arts events of the future.
Public investment in the arts and culture makes huge economic sense:
The UK has world class artistic and cultural offerings. Let’s keep it that way. #Culturematters
