Art, Craft and Design in Education APPG

First Registered: 29/09/2015 • Last updated on: 30/05/2024

Note: This APPG was last registered on 30th May 2024. The APPG was not registered in the latest release of the 28th August 2024 and may be defunct.

The group believes that art, craft and design education is essential to the economy and to the cultural, spiritual, creative and social wellbeing of all; that it empowers individuals, enabling them to engage with our rich visual and cultural heritage, express themselves and become visually literate and perceptive, and that access to high quality art, craft and design education is an entitlement for everyone.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
