A long day at dance performance rehearsals for #KickOff #Gracefool #Leeds2023 #YearOfCulture https://leeds2023.co.uk/whats-on/kick-off-gracefool-collective

Hugely enjoyed the preview of #LeedsArtistsShow '23 at @LeedsArtGallery last night - so much beautiful and relevant practice underway in our city and an absolutely not-to-be-missed show this year in our year of culture #Leeds2023 #Leeds #visualarts

Now that's something you don't see every day. Faces in the night sky #DroneDisplay 👿

Wishing #LEEDS2023 well as its #YearOfCulture launches today.

(What a great European #CapitalOfCulture #Leeds would have been! Another casualty of #Brexit…)

Being a member of the Leeds art community, I was on the fence about #Leeds2023, the year of culture and arts that has descended onto the city. Mostly because when a bunch of people from other cities rock into your city and tell you how to do art, its easy to get defensive.

However after its opening Gala I am sold. The #Awakening has me brimming with local pride and excitement for the year ahead.
