Art and culture is extremely valuable. But the kind of art and culture supported by government programs tends to be less so.
What would also be much more valuable than creating art is making that art available to everyone including for the purposes of producing more art. If the art subsidies came with a condition to release the art to the public domain then I would be much more for domain-specific funding.
