The Sunday @thetimes says that HU1 is one of the 'coolest' postcodes in which to live in the UK, highlighting the 'hip' Humber St, so here it is in the '60s when it was the centre of the Fruit Market. @HullMaritime @hull_libraries

We hosted our second #JuryForJoy at the weekend - our long term citizens' jury in West Cumbria about culture & creativity.
Our jury members not only battled Storm Bert to be with us but gave so much care & consideration when generating ideas & deliberating future plans...

"Lottery grants were intended to work in addition to public funding, not to replace it. In propping up crumbling arts infrastructure, the lottery has helped let governments off the hook. Funding for the arts should not depend on crossing our fingers." theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Whilst getting to know the history of Workington, @fromhannahfox has been very taken with the notion that the town is where world class rails were manufactured.
It's really inspired her work for #HallParkLightWorks & what you'll experience at the event later this month...
