The purpose of What Next?

Broad aim: to find new ways of engaging with our audience and visitors: the ever-expanding millions who value and take part in the cultural work that happens day-in, day-out up and down this country.

Guiding star: to encourage the people of this country, as individuals and as communities, to see connections between the many different ways art and culture affect and enhance our lives; to urge everyone to register their endorsement of – and pleasure in – their art and culture, especially where these are under threat.

Beth Nesaf? – beth yw’r nod?

Nod bras: dod o hyd i ffyrdd newydd o ymgysylltu â’n cynulleidfa a’n hymwelwyr: y miliynau gynyddol sy’n gwerthfawrogi diwylliant ac yn cymryd rhan ynddo bob dydd ledled y wlad.

Seren arweiniol: annog ein pobl, yn unigolion a chymunedau, i weld cysylltiadau rhwng y llu o wahanol ffyrdd y mae celfyddyd a diwylliant yn effeithio ar ein bywyd a’i wella; annog pawb i gofrestru eu cymeradwyaeth o gelfyddyd a diwylliant, a’u pleser ynddynt, yn enwedig lle y maent dan fygythiad.

He is part of the Berlin based organisation MitOst e.V., which promotes active citizenship, social cohesion and sustainable urban and rural development – beyond cultural, sectoral or linguistic borders. Julian has an academic background in political sciences and international relations and has formerly worked in international development programmes fostering social security and health. He has been engaged with the Young European Federalists for many years, promoting a strong, open and diverse Europe. As an event designer, facilitator, moderator and mentor for cultural exchange projects all over Europe and beyond, he constantly seeks to exchange with social change makers on the challenges and best practices they come across working with their communities.
