So grateful to the @CanalRiverTrust for the incredible work they do giving life to urban waterways & support for arts & community activities in #Coventry

[Canal & River Trust @CanalRiverTrust]

The Government has made an announcement about the funding of the nation's canals that puts the future of our much-loved network at risk ❗
We hope you'll share our disappointment at this decision & want to help to #KeepCanalsAlive 💙

Our hearts are heavy in learning about the passing of Phyllida Barlow (1944-2023). RIP to this incredible artist and spirit.

“There are plenty of artists who don't have exhibitions. There's plenty of art that's never seen. There is this powerful desire to just create something.”

For Phyllida Barlow, art & artists exist regardless of whether they are seen by an audience.

Dr Antony Weir, who sadly passed away this week, maintained such a beautiful personal and family archive of Coventry & beyond. Do take a look. A deeply talented and interesting man. https://t.co/Vtx2N03Def

One of the Recommendations from #A4TP, our Citizens' Assembly last year, was to add bright, beautiful, creative lighting to dark places across the city. We've been out & about with @LudicRooms playing with light to test this out - what do you think? https://t.co/d8p8gxzWiv

[Ludic Rooms @ludicrooms]

Join us this Saturday 8th Oct and contribute to R&D for a new piece of work with Coventry River Cultural Consortium. Plunder a miscellany of images & documents of yesteryear to create a cutup and collaged imagined folk narrative for Coventry as a River City.

(Thread) ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! No more raw sewage in our seas! I have to share this with you all as I feel MORTIFIED and sick 🤢😡

Yesterday we visited Huttoft beach, a place we've visited for yrs. As normal, the kids ran into the sea for a paddle and what unfolded was horrific.

While some courses remain and all the 'paused' courses will be taught out, every closure reduces the options for students from the Black Country and West Midlands. We are devastated but we will fight these drastic cuts, because the arts matter #stopthecutsUoW
