A survey released on 19th September by the Arts Council reveals the impact that the cost-of-living crisis, combined with a reduction in income, is having on the arts sector, with 22% fewer performances, exhibitions and events held last year.
The findings from the Arts Council’s Annual Funding Survey show that organisations are unable to offer the same level of arts programming compared to the previous 12 months, as costs rise and income falls. The survey looks at a number of areas, including employment, income and expenditure, programming, audiences and engagement.
