More of a discussion than a campaign, so lets get talking…
Does Ipswich need a mid-sized live music venue like the Arts Centres in Norwich and Colchester?
Do the recently launched new venues in Ipswich answer this need?
Is there a need at all?
Ipswich doesn’t have a ‘not for profit’ live music venue/ Arts Centre like the ones some of our surrounding towns enjoy, but is that because there’s no need in Ipswich, or is it because we’ve somehow never gotten around to creating one?
The Ipswich Arts Centre website has been launched to get people talking and provide a focal point for the people of Ipswich and surrounding areas to try and figure out if an Arts Centre would be good for our town.
So what’s the next step? How do you get involved?
Well to tell the truth we’re not sure, which is why we’ve launched this website. We need you the people to get involved; this website is for sharing ideas and attaining focus. Part of the reason other types of arts are catered for in Ipswich might just be that the folk involved in other types of arts are a damned sight better at getting organised than people involved in the music scene traditionally have been.
So have a look around the site, have your say (negative or positive), but above all please get involved! Post in the forum, comment on the pages, tweet or link to us on Facebook, something (anything) that might help!
