Abstract

Culture in the City is a celebration of the cultural transformation that Sunderland is experiencing in both its cultural confidence and capacity, showing it as a place where creative people want to produce great art and culture for a population who increasingly wish to enjoy it. It shows that culture, in all its diverse forms, makes Sunderland a better place by enriching people's lives, providing greater opportunities for its children and young people and enhancing its image and reputation.
