Libraries and museums across the North East are set to benefit from a £60m financial boost by the Government to improve access to the arts.
Beneficiaries of the Cultural Investment Fund, announced today by Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer, include museums, cultural venues and public libraries across our area. The fund is aimed at improving people’s access to arts, supporting local economic growth through culture and safeguarding local collections for future generations.
The venues will share from a pot of £58.8 million which will see arts venues transformed, upgraded and created as part of the government’s plans to make sure everyone can access culture in the UK.
