V&A plans Museum in Blackpool!

The Great British Seaside Resort: sun, sand, piers, funfairs and donkey rides. But that is only part of the attraction. If you love being beside the seaside, talk about it here!

V&A plans Museum in Blackpool!

Postby Gary » 21 Dec 2008, 09:32

So says The Times today (21 Dec)

"Two of Britain's great victorian institutions plan to link up and build a new museum in the Lancashire Town.."

"..Ideally we're looking for a brand new iconic building with plenty of glass to ensure natural light.." (Tony Williams, Local Councillor)

..I've always thought that there isn't enough natural light in Blackpool...plenty of glass though..

Joking aside..Good on Blackpool. I for one love the sculptures along the front and the Grundy art gallery in town is definately worth several visits.

If adding more culture brings in more people then it has to be a good thing.

Please pass through the turnstiles if you are riding again.
