17Nineteen Society Open Day

Back in August, the 17Nineteen Society held their first Open Day. We’ve covered events at 17Nineteen previously on ArtyParti - for those who’ve not heard of the building, it was ‘Holy Trinity Church’ established in the year 1719, but over the years reinvented itself primarily as a community arts, heritage, and event space.The new volunteer-run and volunteer-led society has been established to help ensure the building continues to flourish into the future. Holy Trinity Church is the responsibility of the Churches Conservation Trust as custodians of the building, and 17Nineteen provides volunteer support for the community to access the space.Across the episode, you’ll hear from the voices of:Anne Moore - Chair, 17Nineteen SocietyBrenda Owens - Jewellery Designer / MakerAlison Tonge & Ken Tonge - Hop, Skiffle, and JumpMarion Wheeler - Chair, Wearside Creative StitchersStuart Miller - Local Sunderland Author & HistorianJackie Glendenning & Michelle McPheators - VolunteersMore about ArtyParti:ArtyParti is a twice-monthly podcast, events series, and community platform that celebrates the work of artists and creatives.
