The arts debate is Arts Council England’s first-ever public value inquiry. They want everyone to have a say about the value of the arts and the role of public funding.

The Arts Council want to hear your views on five key questions that they believe should be the subject of a national debate:

  • What do you value about the arts?
  • What principles should guide public funding of the arts today?
  • What are the responsibilities of publicly funded arts organisations?
  • When should an artist receive public money?
  • Should members of the public be involved in arts funding decisions?
