Provision of Creative Places Advisory Services

Creative Places is a flagship programme of the Arts Council established in 2020. The intention is to invest longitudinally in people and places around the country, that have not benefitted from sustained investment in the arts to date. There are currently 19 places who are in receipt of development funding, seven of which are in a research and development phase. Creative Places is a multi-annual funding programme, with scope for an additional phase after three years, focusing on building long-term sustainability. The Creative Places Programme is a developmental, evolving programme and the support needs of each place change over the course of the programme. The number of places involved in the programme may grow incrementally between 2025 and 2027.
