“Creative Darlington has been very important in securing funding from Arts Council England, as they provided match monetary funding, but also curatorial and managerial experience. Creative Darlington have also been a strong partner in marketing the project both in the town and online. They are also always willing to try and make an idea a reality, no matter how conceptual in nature, they always look at practical ways of making the idea happen, and what needs to be done to make it work in the town.”
