It’s been a very special year for Knowsley as Liverpool City Region Borough of Culture.
At the start of the year New Dawn lit up Knowsley, there was also the Owl and Pussy-Cat sculpture trail, Knowsley’s Sporting Legends Relay, The Youth Summit, Serious Nonsense Festival, Feelgood Show and Flower Festival, community parades and spectaculars such as A Thousand Feet Deep, fantastic exhibitions including Quentin Blake and, of course, the opening of the Shakespeare North Playhouse.
And you can still enjoy the National Gallery Masterpiece tour at Kirkby Gallery and this November we’re hosting the Knowsley Music Festival with even more to follow in December.
There really has been something for everyone.
We would love it if you could help us shine a light on all those amazing artists, creatives, partners and volunteers who have worked so imaginatively and tirelessly to make Knowsley’s Borough of Culture year such a success.
If you have enjoyed it as much as we have, we would love you to nominate the Knowsley Borough of Culture programme 2022 for the People’s Choice Award for the Liverpool City Region Culture and Creativity Awards and Culture Knowsley for Arts organisation of the year.
