The organisers of the 2014 Commonwealth Games to be held in Glasgow are planning a world-class cultural programme to rival the Edinburgh Festival to complement this major sporting event to be staged next year.
Dozens of arts events are being lined up which will be designed to spill out into the streets of Scotland's second city over a two-week period before and during the games themselves as part of a £4 million programme of events involving the city's galleries, museums and performing arts companies.
Funding to the tune of grants up to £300,000 has already been provided and the fund is said already to be 'hugely oversubscribed' after being opened to artists, events, organisers and companies across the country last year.
