For anyone concerned with changes to the DCMS and cuts in arts funding, read this article on Stan's Cafe which explains the issuesThe arts have been under attack for a long time but the current proposals will decimate a sector that has been struggling for survival over the last few years. It seems that the major dilemma is whether or not to protect the major London institutions - for example the Royal Opera House receives £28million 0f public funding - and sacrifice hundreds of smaller regional arts organisations.
Or whether to take away one large funded organisation in London and spread that across the smaller grass roots. Of course either path would be very controversial. For those who want to fight back, there is a ‘lobbying toolkit’ on the ACE website. |
