Manchester libraries and Salford and Bury museums to get boost to funding
It will not save Oldham's Coliseum theatre, but culture in Greater Manchester will benefit from a £58.8m pot of grants from the government.
Under the government's Libraries and Improvement Fund, Manchester Libraries will receive £198,872, and Oldham Coucil Librariies £151,520. The Museum Estate and Development Fund will make grants of £143,766 to The Fusilier Museum in Bury; £104,865 to Salford Museum and Art Gallery; and £673,826 to Queen's Park Stores in Manchester.
Salford Museum and Art Gallery’s collection comprises social history, fine art, and decorative art items. Its grant will help pay for urgent repairs such as a new roof to its learning room and the addition of required heating and ventilation to enable its learning and engagement programmes and venue hire offer to restart.
“Culture helps us create lifelong memories with our families and friends, provides entertainment and joy, and allows us to explore the world around us in new and exciting ways. It can also boost tourism, support local business and drive local economic growth.
