Councillor Charlotte Morris, cabinet member for culture, the economy and skills, said: “When it comes to culture and creativity, we have lots to shout about in Bury, and is something we are investing considerably in, as an intrinsic part of our town centre regeneration proposals.

“This will be fabulous two-day festival, celebrating the many groups and individuals who work in culture and heritage, and giving residents across the borough the chance to get involved and nurture their own unique artistic talents.”
