��If we don’t put our foot down now, who’s to say that they will always view artwork as a priority instead of actually delivering frontline services and helping the people that truly need it" - people need art too! god forbid we have any joy on this hellscape of a planet x

[Katy Hudson @theKTextinction]

respectfully, this is a senseless take. an accredited museum can't just sell a Rosetti to "plug a £300m hole in the council's budget", nor does the percentage of a museum's collection on display indicate its value? why is our arts/culture sector expected to take every hit!

[BBC Midlands @bbcmtd]

Birmingham City Council owns an artwork collection valued at almost half a billion pounds, a BBC investigation has discovered.

The scale of the council-owned art collection has also revealed.

Public art collections are not an asset, they are a living legacy owned in common for current and future generations.

I literally cried myself a black eye when I got my #LeavingCert results (yes!) because I thought my life was over. It wasn't - I went to college, got two degrees, and found a career I love! A bunch of intense exams aren't an indication of what the rest of your life will be like!
