Borough of Culture Launch

Posted on by tim.lightfactory

On Saturday 4th March, we’ll be part of the opening celebrations for St Helens Borough of Culture Year, held at The World of Glass between 10:30am – 3:00pm. We’ll have a stall to show you some of the collected material so far and outline our plans for the year. If you have any memorabilia from 1982-1995 that you would like to add the St Helens Archive, please bring it along, we’ll have a scanner to copy anything so you can keep the original. We’ve love to hear your stories and memories from that time too. Look our for our banner on the mezzanine level and hopefully see you there.
