I contribute to a local community radio station\website The Cultural Thing
We have teamed up with Newcastle City Library to create a Culture Zone.
In this zone we will be celebrating the culture of the North East, the fabulous music and art that comes from the region.
We are working with the library to compile and catalogue a comprehensive selection of local music that the public can borrow.
By doing this we are hoping that the local music scene will benefit massively.
I am hoping that other libraries around the region will also take this scheme up. There is so much talent that is out there.
If you would like your cd\dvd catalogued and made available for hire then please get in touch with me at michaelhunterisbrill@yahoo.com
We will also be publicising local gigs around the Newcastle area, so if you have any posters\flyers that you want placing in our stands then please send them.
As well as musical content all aspect of North East culture will be publicised, so if you have anything that you can contribute then again please get in touch.
