HC Deb 30 March 1987 vol 113 cc430-1W
66. Mr. Ray Powell

asked the Minister for the Arts what steps he has taken in the past year to widen audiences for the arts in Wales.

Mr. Luce

The Welsh Arts Council, in partnership with local authority and local arts organisations, supports three marketing consortia. Cardiff and Swansea art markets promote ideas for increasing audiences for the arts in their areas. In February 1987 a new initiative, Arts Marketing in Dyfed, was started in a rural area.
