DCMS and the arts industry
The Department is committed to helping the arts industry to flourish, both economically (with a focus on employment, turnover and exports) and artistically. We:
- Develop relationships with key representative bodies and important players to discuss issues affecting the industry, from training to ticket touting. The performing arts industry is represented on the Creative Industries Export Promotions Advisory Group
- Research the opportunities and threats to the industry by drawing on the Creative Industries Mapping Document, the Wyndham and After Wyndham Reports on West End Theatre, and other research
- Develop performance indicators to measure the impact of our sponsorship policies in this area
- Identify issues holding back economic and artistic growth and work with the industry to develop ways of overcoming them
- Act as the sponsor Department for the arts, representing the industry's interests within Whitehall
