Recent studies have shown that those who have engaged with the arts more regularly have seen a positive effect on both their health and well being, and our ability to learn.
In 2014 the Isle of Man was celebrated as the Island of Culture. A legacy program was set up to ensure that the island would continue to benefit from this initiative.
