More than 70 cultural organisations across Britain are to be given a financial boost by the government so they can improve people’s access to arts, support local economic growth through culture and safeguard vital local collections for future generations.

The organisations will share a pot of £58.8m (US$72m, €67.3m), which will see arts venues transformed, upgraded and created as part of the government’s plans to make sure people across the UK can access its world-renowned culture.

“Investment in creativity and culture is a catalyst for improving well-being and raising aspirations, reinvigorating pride in communities, regenerating high streets and local economies, and bringing people together,” said Darren Henley, Arts Council England CEO.

“We’re pleased to play a part in delivering the Cultural Investment Fund and this investment will help create new, or improve existing, cultural buildings and spaces in our villages, towns and cities.

“By doing so it will support recovery and growth and unlock the creative potential of those who live and work in communities across England.”
