A major investment of over £8.94 million to strengthen Wales iconic museums, archives, libraries and cultural institutions has been announced today to grow and bolster the nation’s “essential” cultural foundations.

The Welsh Government has already increased its spend for the broader culture sector by 8.5% this year and tripled investment in venues and sites compared to a decade ago.

Today’s announcement builds upon £11 million in capital grants already awarded over the past six months since launching its Priorities for Culture, alongside targeted initiatives supporting young people's access to cultural experiences.
