Participation in the arts is unquestionably good for community mental health and wellbeing, but those working in the arts aren’t reporting the same benefits. Artists are burning out and leaving the sector in droves. What’s working and what’s not? Why are the arts often considered non-essential in our culture and what needs to change in the way we market and think about the arts?

Together they tackle one of the most complex issues facing the arts sector, and debate how to change community perception of the arts from a luxury to an essential item.
