Congratulations to Year 9 pupils from St. Gabriel's RC High School on producing beautiful poems through the Comino Poet in Residence programme with the Portico Library and the lead poet, Abigail Cook. There's a special display of the poems in the Library for everyone to admire!

@BuryArtMuseum has been a great partner for @ideasfoundation @CcComino residency projects with local schools, it has been fantastic introducing local pupils to the brilliant exhibitions and collections over the years, it's an asset to the local community. Follow @dontburyculture

@clothandmemory @craftsmagazine @CraftsCouncilUK @ace_national @UCAROffice Such a lovely man. What a loss.

Those we have lost: Prof Simon Olding Director Crafts Study Centre died 19 Nov 2022 after short illness. Wise, kind, funny, knowlegeable, his loss to #craft and to his friends is huge @craftsmagazine @CraftsCouncilUK @ace_national #ceramics @UCAROffice

Sorry to repeat myself, but you *really* need to know this. Under the government's Public Order Bill, anyone who has protested in the previous 5 years can be forced to "submit to ... being fitted with, or the installation of, any necessary apparatus" to monitor your movements.

Y7 pupils visited @ThePortico Library in Mcr for a poetry project with the @CcComino and @cultureword. They looked at texts from the historical collection and worked with @McrPoetryLib @ManMetUni poet Sasha who led powerful sessions. Here's the film: youtu.be/uwpmVQTE76o
