Cultural organisations across the South West of England have been awarded £111m over the next three years by Arts Council England (ACE).
A total of 117 galleries, venues, museums and libraries across the region such as the Bristol Beacon and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter will receive £37m in grants every year between 2023 and 2026.
ACE’s portfolio has been extended with new recipients of funding including Bristol-based performance arts group Trigger Productions - which was behind the large-scale dragon puppet that appeared in the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee procession.
