Funding not Drowning: The crisis in regional arts funding with Professor Frayling

Arts funding is being squeezed hard in this harsh economic climate, nowhere more than outside London in regional theatres, libraries and arts and culture organisations.

To address this, Professor Frayling, Chairman of Arts Council England from 2005 until January 2009 and formerly Rector of The Royal College of Art, will discuss the future of funding of the arts, with a particular focus on the problems of allocation of funding between regional and national organisations.

This will be followed by a conversation about arts funding, led by Professor Frayling and Professor Helen Taylor, University of Exeter Arts and Culture Fellow. There will also be an opportunity for the audience to ask questions and share their views.
