WORKING FOR THE CAPITAL OF CULTURE

Okay, so maybe Liverpool isn’t the first place you think about when you think about culture. But the city has been named the European Capital of Culture for 2008 and the city is fixing up. “Museums and galleries are expanding, public buildings are being spruced up after years of neglect, a theatre has come back into the limelight after three dark years, and the city’s symphony orchestra is looking forward to a stable financial future under a new conductor.”- The Guardian 12/29/00
