Arts Dividend eBook

The Arts Dividend looks in depth at seven key benefits that art and culture bring to our lives: encouraging our nation's creativity; advancing education; impacting positively on health and wellbeing; supporting innovation and technology; providing defining characteristics to villages, towns and cities; contributing to economic prosperity; and enhancing England's reputation for cultural excellence on the global stage.This book encourages us to consider our country's innate creativity and the invaluable rewards to be gained from the public investment that enables great art and culture to be a part of everyone's lives, no matter who they are or where they live.Having spent a year travelling the length and breadth of England, Darren Henley shares his reflections on our remarkable national arts and culture landscape from Cumbria to Kent and from Cornwall to Northumberland.
