BURY ART MUSEUM IS UNDER THREAT
Opened in 1901, it has an internationally significant collection, innovative contemporary programmes and exhibitions and a pivotal role in the community. Devastating proposed cuts mean it could cease to exist. Please share! #dontburyculture

[Anna Columbine @anna_gracie]

Have your say and help prevent potentially devastating cuts to Bury’s biggest cultural asset.

#DontBuryCulture especially not in the town which was celebrated in 2020/21 as #TownOfCulture

It’s absurd that as part of @BuryCouncil’s ‘Let’s Do It’ campaign - which arguably takes its name from an incredible exhibition which took place at @BuryArtMuseum - now proposes to carry out an ‘appraisal’ of said venue… after Bury was Town of Culture… We can’t let this happen!

A great morning of talks about ‘co-creation’ from artists and facilitators working in & with institutions with @engagevisualart!

I’m working on an engagement project with my museum, but as an artist & so this is throwing up some interesting q’s, like these from @_jadelillie

[London Museum @LDN_Museum]

We're inviting you to help co-curate the London, Sugar and Slavery Gallery at Museum of London Docklands for our next display in Summer 2022. Since opening in 2007, the gallery has been a dedicated space for communities to comment on these themes.

This sketchbook by Bury artist James 'Clock' Shaw contains sketches of Bury, like these drawings of the old Market Place and the Clarence Hotel.

The sketchbook is currently displayed in our 'Spirit of a Place' exhibition along with more of his work!

This unique 1650s painting just sold at auction @TrevanionGB @CTrevanion for £220,000! Guide price was only £2-4,000. I hope the buyer puts it on public display & commissions further research into its significance! https://t.co/huCUvO2H36

Its been very eye-opening looking into Britain’s ‘involvement’ with the slave trade through art history during my MA, but is it surprising to see how people are still trying to erase/distort this history, with calls for commissioned reports to be ‘shredded’? Probably not.

Pleased that the Charity Commission has confirmed that our work into the links between colonial history and slavery and @nationaltrust places was within our charitable aims. https://t.co/0ZEEcHFCp1
