Arts Council England works to get great art to everyone by championing, developing and investing in artistic experiences that enrich people's lives. As the national development agency for the arts, we support a range of artistic activities from theatre to music, literature to dance, photography to digital art, carnival to crafts.

TMFA10 Latest:

There's a revolution underway in the arts world. Organisations big and small are deploying digital technology to create lively communities way beyond their geographical location and to produce a new and wonderfully diverse generation of public service content. They are also marketing themselves more effectively than ever before. At The Media Festival Arts you'll hear from some of the most imaginative pioneers in this online world. They'll explain the levels on connectivity and engagement that they're achieving and the dynamic delivery of public value that is the result.

Peter Bazalgette, Deputy Chairman, English National Opera

Networking

The Media Festival Arts has been specifically designed to allow forward-thinking arts and media professionals to network with peers and speakers. Formal and informal networking opportunities over 2.5 days will allow you to track the latest digital opportunities as convergence between the arts and media gathers pace. The creation of a community will extend beyond the physical event, helping you to get the most out of the festival.
