Mission
The national Arts and Place Consortium emerged from the Farrell Review of Architecture and the Built Environment 2014 and has now been adopted as a working group of the Place Alliance.
The group is comprised of a range of cultural professionals and artists, supported by the arts organisation Beam. It was formed to address and promote the role of the arts and artists in placemaking.
We champion the role of artists and the arts in great placemaking.
We do this by:
• Promoting the benefits of the arts in place
• Working to influence policy and best practice
• Showcasing examples of exemplary projects
• Encouraging discussion and debate
