Culture and Poverty

Hay Festival 2014, 

What part do culture and the arts play in tackling poverty in Wales? Do tough times lead to greater artistic expression and increased participation in cultural activities? The Welsh Government’s Minister for Culture & Sport discusses what role government has in widening opportunities across Wales with the Chair of Arts Council Wales. The Minister is in conversation with Dai Smith, an historian, biographer, novelist and chair of the Arts Council of Wales and the award-winning novelist and playwright Rachel Trezise.
