Expanding Art Collections: The Greens’ EU Pledge Leads to More Regional Loans
If Labour wins the upcoming general election, regional museums in the UK may see an increase in loans of works from national institutions. The party’s manifesto includes plans to support regional museums by requiring national museums and galleries to increase the loans they make from their collections. The Conservative Party manifesto focuses on protecting public monuments, while the Liberal Democrats promise to negotiate free travel arrangements for artists post-Brexit. The Green Party plans to campaign for VAT exemptions for cultural events and increase funding for local arts and culture. Reform UK’s manifesto does not mention the arts or cultural sectors.
