  The culture of Budapest is reflected by Budapest's size and variety. Most Hungarian cultural movements first emerged in the city. Budapest is an important center for music, film, theatre, dance and visual art. Artists have been drawn into the city by opportunity, as the city government funds the arts with adequate financial resources.
  
  Budapest was named "City of Design" in December 2015 and has been a member of UNESCO Creative Cities Network since then.
