I'm Backing Durham To Be UK City Of Culture

I'm very proudly backing Durham's bid to become the UK city of culture.

County Durham is one of the most culturally vibrant places in the country. Art, music, comedy, photography and theatre all flourish in our area. We have a wealth of museums, galleries and theatres and a huge number of talented local artists, musicians and writers.

Making Durham the UK capital of culture would ensure that an international spotlight is placed on the great cultural talent in our area. It would also play a role in helping push forward the economic renewal of our area.

The backdrop of the city and cathedral would be unbeatable anywhere. The immense beauty of our local area means that Durham would provide an immense setting as the UK's capital of culture.

I'm passionately backing this bid. If you share my belief in the city, county and region please show your support at this Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=45420764268
