@HENLEYDARREN The best view, officially

[dan smith @danfobo]

The 2012 opening ceremony can cure a cold, a hangover, a broken heart. You name it. Unbeatable.

[Andrew Miller @AndrewM_Arts]

Good to see the arms length principle and the political independence of the arts reaffirmed by Nick Serota today.

"And to artists: continue to be as brave and challenging and uncompromising as you have always been ". @arts

[Arts Council England @ace_national]

NEW: Our Chair Sir Nick Serota writes in today’s Observer -
“I want to propose a set of missions for the future of the arts: five areas in which I believe the cultural sector could collaborate with government to achieve genuine renewal” #LetsCreate

Working together in this time of change will be really important. Some useful early thinking from the Arts Council here… #LetsCreate!

[Darren Henley CBE @HENLEYDARREN]

I’ve written a new @ace_national blog reflecting on our next steps after the General Election, and what the arts and culture sector can do too, as we navigate change together. You can read it here: https://t.co/pgPbVprbsP #LetsCreate

[Darren Henley CBE @HENLEYDARREN]

Alongside the whole @ace_national team, looking forward to working with new @DCMS Secretary of State @lisanandy to champion benefits of public investment in artists, arts organisations, museums & libraries on lives of people in villages, towns & cities across England #LetsCreate

You just don’t know what sort of deep TED talks you stumble upon here…

[Darren Henley CBE @HENLEYDARREN]

After a difficult week for Birmingham, I’m pleased to be in the city meeting with leaders of cultural organisations to reassure them of @ace_national support through this period. Across the next couple of days, I’ll be meeting with our new NPOs and IPSOs to hear about their work

🚨 North easterners give more to charity than other parts of the country 🚨

As a share of income, our latest research shows they give more than those stingy southerners.

Us north easterners are just so big-hearted, it couldn't not be true.

Although I now live in the South.

[dan smith @danfobo]

So very sad about sycamore gap. The original angel of the north.

@AbiFaro Bloody good isn’t it.

[dan smith @danfobo]

I’m running (“running”) the Great North Run this September. Fundraising in honour of my dad - who ran it many times, and far better than my attempt I’m sure.

Please throw some change my way if you can! Thanks ❤️
