The launch took place last week at Reignite XII: The Future of Culture, which brought together more than 250 leaders from across culture, business, education and the public sector. Reignite XII explored Our Future Ambitions and The Future of Culture through keynote presentations, case studies and panel discussions, focusing on practical challenges and opportunities facing the sector. Cherie Federico, Director of Aesthetica, said: “Reignite XII marked a defining moment for York. The launch of the Culture Strategy gives the city a clear framework and shared ambition for how culture can drive economic growth, social connection and civic pride. The York Culture Strategy, which has been developed by City of York Council, and partners across North Yorkshire in the creative sector, is available to read online at https://reignite.org.uk/A related film can also be seen at: https://vimeo.com/1157133594
