In today's session, one of the Makers presented her research on cinemas. Then Erin Wilson-Clark worked with the group on final changes to the Makers Manifesto.

Thanks to @2021visualarts for hosting.

An absolute pleasure to talk to exhibitions manager at @2021VisualArts today about the centre and the recent exhibition from Claire Hewitt.

[Pete Hewes @hewes_pete]

Creating this set in @2021VisualArts was an absolute dream come true. I’d filmed in the building a lot over the years and always knew it was perfect for the 125 year Scunthorpe United kit launch.
