A heady mix of the leading cultural and learning organisations in the North West take over Manchester city centre to showcase the very best of what they do
Culturemarket in St Ann’s Square kicked off with a specially composed Fanfare for the Square commissioned and performed by the BBC Philharmonic; a whalebone thigh that needed cleaning for Manchester Museum and fashion, music and dance on the Culturemarket stage by some of Manchester’s finest emerging talent.
We co-created this event to offer cultural organisations an opportunity to come together to share their expertise in unusual and inspiring ways with the public. Our evaluation told us that for many shoppers this was the first time they had come into contact with these organisations.
