An artist sold a piece on @_easelart for well over £1,500 this weekend. You can buy original pieces at all prices of course, but I'm bloody proud we've found a way to connect art lovers and artists during a period when galleries are closed and art fairs can't run. Art is viable.

This is Easel, by @McrArtFair. I'm so proud of this. A new, online art buying platform, supporting artists and galleries, straight out of Manchester. Do share, and do subscribe.

I'm so proud of this: We run @NRBManchester; NRB Top 50; NRB Debate; NRB Future; @McrArtFair; @McrContemporary; @McrContemporary Art Fund; plus now, post-Covid, @_easelart; @Salon_Hang; NRB Play. Six staff, two freelancers, one dog; mostly part time, but with balance and passion.

[Thom Hetherington @ThomHetheringto]

The last 6mths have been gruelling for everyone, not least my team, who run major events for hospitality and art. But until NRB/Manchester Art Fair/The Manchester Contemporary return we have been BUSY. The entrepreneurial path from necessity to invention is as thrilling as ever.

[Thom Hetherington @ThomHetheringto]

Massive news for culture and the arts. We're not saved but now we have a chance to survive. Hospitality and culture have both fought incredible and rightful battles for support. The missing link, vital but invisible thus far, is the events industry. It ties *everything* together.

[Thom Hetherington @ThomHetheringto]

The formidable @HoldenMedia team pull all of @NRBManchester together, but the people hosting its theatres/events create their own centres of gravity on site. Proud NRB is a platform for the talent & passion of @ChefBrianMellor @DrinksEnthusist @tomhigham @Lucinoone7 @CazDyerlogue

.@HoldenMedia team Christmas lunch @bullandbearmcr @StockExHotel today. Everyone had a monumentally overindulgent blast, which they deserved after an incredible year of @nrbmanchester, @mcrartfair and @mcrcontemporary. Thanks to @cheftomkerridge and team for sending out treats.

Following on from #Thormgate at the @MFDF19 awards: We use the talented @SaraPorterPhoto to shoot @McrArtFair @McrContemporary and @nrbmanchester, but clearly we're not keeping her busy enough... Thanks for this Sara, I remember having hair like that at Uni in the 90s! #IAMTHORM

[Thom Hetherington @ThomHetheringto]

It appears, possibly due to an administrative error, that I've won the @mfdf2019 Outstanding Achievement Award. I'm gobsmacked and grateful to say the least. I couldn't have done it without my family, friends, Team @NRBManchester. It's been a tough year, and this means so much.

Howard and Ruth award for outstanding achievement is awarded to @ThomHetheringto from @HoldenMedia, @NRBManchester founder. And that’s a wrap! #mfdf19
