In the post

A letter signed by north east artists and artistes has appeared in the Guardian. It criticises the planned ending of financial grants to supported arts venues in the city I have mentioned previously. Please follow this link to the B.B.C. web site article and another to the letter.

Despite my sympathies, I am sceptical of an arts policy (sic) that was so closely based on a business led model. It was always about retail.
