Description

The strategic objective of this piece of work is to support Arts Council England's 'Creative People' outcome and our plans to engage more people from all backgrounds across England, in arts, culture and creativity as part of their everyday lives. We will particularly focus on exploring 'everyday creativity' to further understand what assets already exist in this field; what the cultural sector already delivers or engages with; what gaps exist; what particular strategic opportunities there are in the next three years, and enable the sector, including Arts Council England, to better respond to, promote and engage with these for the benefit of the public. This will enable a more strategic, national practical approach to engaging individuals in creative activity whether this be through opportunities with the funded or non-funded sector, or in their own communities and homes.
