This will support individuals and organisations in both Wales and France to connect, develop relationships and create new work across 2023.
Previously, the British Council has supported several arts projects linking Wales and France, most recently supporting the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and the Orchestre National de Bretagne in a series of joint concerts in 2022 and 2023. This support will continue beyond 2023 with the British Council France upcoming cultural season in UK-France Spotlight on Culture 2024 also to feature many Wales-France cultural collaborations.
