bluedot x Bruntwood In Conversation - Our Manchester: How Does Culture Build Community?

What is Manchester without its rich arts and culture scene? From writers like Elizabeth Gaskell and Anthony Burgess to the seismic Madchester movement in the 80s and 90s, and even TV institution Coronation Street, arts and culture form a huge part of what the city is known for. But how does it shape our local communities and our identity as Mancunians?
For our latest ‘Bluedot in Conversation’ event, powered by Bruntwood, our expert panel will discuss milestones in Manchester’s cultural history, explore what culture means to our city and answer your burning questions.
Meet our lineup of culture connoisseurs:
Kate Vokes - Non-executive Director at Bruntwood & Chair at The Oglesby Charitable Trust
Gavin Sharp - CEO at Band on the Wall
Boshra Ghgam - Actor & Spoken Word Artist
