  • Operational Plan This Year Reflects an Important Moment of Change
    Foreword from the Chair and Chief Executive of the Arts Council of Wales These are challenging times for the publicly funded arts in Wales. This isn’t because people don’t care about them – the public are enjoying and taking part in the arts in large numbers. It isn’t because the work is poor – critical acclaim and international distinction tells us differently. The arts remain vulnerable because continuing economic pressures are forcing uncomfortable choices about which areas of civic life can argue the most persuasive case for support. Fortunately, the Welsh Government recognises and understands the value of arts and creativity. Even in these difficult times, the Government is increasing its funding to the Arts Council in 2017/18 by 3.5%. This vote of confidence in Wales’ artists and arts organisations is as welcome as it’s deserved. But economic austerity continues and this increases our responsibility to ensure that the benefits that the arts offer are available to all. If we want Wales to be fair, prosperous and confident, improving the quality of life of its people in all of the country’s communities, then we must make the choices that enable this to happen – hard choices that will require us to be clear about our priorities. We intend over the coming years to make some important changes – not recklessly or heedlessly, but because we feel that we must try harder to ensure that the benefits of the arts are available more fairly across Wales. It is time to tackle the lack of engagement, amongst those not traditionally able to take part in the arts and in those places where the chance to enjoy the arts is more limited.
