This week marks the start of an arts and culture re-set for Manchester with the launch of a brand-new decade long cultural strategy for the city.
Always, Everywhere: Manchester’s Cultural Ambition 2024 – 2034 has been shaped following conversations with local people living and working in the city, as well as input from cultural organisations, creatives, and others directly involved in culture and the arts.
To celebrate its launch, members of the public are being invited to get out over the coming weeks and months and try some of the city’s amazing cultural offer – much of it free – for themselves.
The new cultural ambition set out in the strategy for the city is based on three different themes – everyone, everything, everywhere – aimed at giving everyone across Manchester the opportunity to enjoy and participate in culture and the arts.
Widening access to culture for all, recognising the people that make culture happen, and creating a ‘cultural welcome’ to the city are at the heart of the ‘everyone’ theme.
