With wider audiences and strong demand, we will be able to create a robust ecosystem capable of supporting strong companies and good jobs for arts workers.
The effort to improve employment outcomes for arts workers is an ongoing one. Earlier this year, we announced that the Government would be investing another $100 million to grow the arts sector over the next four years under the Our SG Arts Plan 2023-2027, on top of existing funding. This will support our efforts to build a wider audience for the arts, develop our arts workers and strengthen a robust ecosystem, all of which will contribute to creating good jobs and work opportunities for Singaporeans in the arts sector.
