The Institute of Art and Ideas (iai) is committed to fostering a progressive and vibrant intellectual culture in the UK. We want to change the current cultural landscape through the pursuit and promotion of big ideas, boundary-pushing thinkers and challenging debate.

Our events include HowTheLightGetsIn, the Philosophy and Music Festival at Hay, which puts innovation and cutting-edge thought at the forefront of contemporary culture and Crunch, the Art Festival at Hay, which brings together world leading contemporary artists, curators and commentators. Counterpoint and complement to the cerebral at both events are live music, DJ sets, films and more - a party for all the senses.

IAI TV showcases the best of our debates, talks and live performances. Visit http://iai.tv for more details.
