Always, Everywhere – Creativity in Manchester

Culture sits at the heart of our city. It shapes our communities and broadcasts Manchester’s story right across the world.

Creative activities can be enjoyable and a lot of fun – they inspire us and allow us to express ourselves. Art, music, festivals and community events – happening across Manchester – reflect the vibrant cultural fabric of our city. Plus, visiting cultural places like museums, galleries, libraries and theatres helps us to meet other people and share new ideas and experiences.

Manchester’s new ten-year cultural plan shows that creativity is happening everywhere – helping to connect people and communities right across Manchester.
