3. Gain experience in the Arts and Culture sector
   
   We champion, develop and invest in artistic and cultural experiences that enrich people's lives. We support activities across the arts, museums and libraries – from theatre to digital art, reading to dance, music to literature, and crafts to collections. An apprenticeship at the Arts Council will give you unique experience to continue a career in this vibrant sector.
