How do the arts affect societal and cultural behaviours? Why does creativity matter not just to the arts but to our whole existence as human beings?
Culture and creativity help build flourishing and inclusive societies as well as powering the economy. The arts foster individual talent, bring people together and inspire the innovation essential in today’s world. How does creative education benefit society?
