Launching our new sector report for the visual arts in parliament… great work @daks.org.uk @artistnewsnetwork @cvan et al #FramingTheFuture

Framing the Future – But Who’s Holding the Brush? The publication of Framing the Future: The Political Case for Strengthening the Visual Arts Ecosystem arrives at a pivotal moment for the cultural sector. It sets out an articulate argument for embedding the visual arts more firmly within national policy priorities, positioning them not as an afterthought or adornment, but as a necessary component of how society addresses its wider challenges—from education and mental health to regional inequality and economic growth.

What would it take for participatory arts to be seen as central to the UK’s visual arts ecosystem, not a side note? Read our blog reflecting on the Framing the Future report and its implications for community-rooted practice #FramingTheFuture #CommunityArts
