A Moddey Little Christmas

This week on Spotlight, we venture north to the studio of illustrator Julia Ashby-Smyth & we’re joined by Grainne Sheard, Arts Engagement Officer for the IOM Arts Council.

 

Do pop by our blog at manxradio.com where you’ll find links to the creatives featured on today’s programme, and if there’s something creative you’d like to share with us yourself, email us at Spotlight@manxradio.com to tell us all about it!

 

 

We begin this week's programme in a log cabin in the woods, in the north of the Island, where illustrator Julia Ashby-Smyth is hard at work making magic!

 

Following the release of the National Development Strategy for Culture and the Arts in the Isle of Man, Grainne Sheard, who you may know as crochet artist Yarny Grainne, has recently been appointed as Arts Engagement Officer for the Isle of Man Arts Council. She joined us to talk about her role, the ambitions that the Arts Council has to promote inclusion and wellbeing through creativity in the community and how you can get involved!

 

Do join us again next Wednesday at 5:30pm for Spotlight but until then, drop us a line at Spotlight@manxradio.com
