Bring Your Own Beamer will be part of this month’s Third Thursday, delivered by Pop-Up Brighton, lighting up Brighton Place. There are two new artworks shown especially for Third Thursdays, selected through our exhibition submission programme. Plus a newly curated, colour-saturated film trail to follow and films in windows to watch.

About ABCD Cultural Recovery Plan

The disruption of the pandemic brought together over 100 creatives in Brighton & Hove to explore how arts & culture can be more inclusive, sustainable and collaborative in the City in the future. This resulted in a recovery plan that runs to the end of 2022 and has so far raised over £350k for the cultural sector in the City. The plan is overseen by an independent group of people formed of a Governance Group and a series of Working Groups. Our aims are to create paid work and professional opportunities for creative workers in the City, to develop a more inclusive cultural offer and to encourage partnership working to strengthen the creative sector in the long term.

Our partners include Brighton & Hove City Council, Arts Council England, Brilliant Brighton Business Improvement District, the Pebble Trust and many funded arts organisations in the City. If you work in the creative industries and want to get involved and/or find out more visit cultureinourcity.com
