2012 Games - our vision

Subject:Arts Council England, Strategic partners
Region:Arts Council England, London

We believe the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games offer an unprecedented opportunity to reinforce the UK’s reputation as a world leader in culture. The four year cultural festival leading up to the Games will represent the very best of British talent, celebrating imagination and creativity, innovation and excellence. This has the potential to inspire individuals and communities to take part in the arts, raising the aspirations of young people for years to come and leaving a legacy of increased participation in the arts.
