Dudley Creates Chronicles
This is the beginning of a live chronicle of our 100 year cultural strategy in action. We have many contributors, they are all local people catalysing and supporting cultural action across Dudley Borough. These chronicles offer glimpses into events and activities through photography, videos, some writing and art.
For a deeper dive into our learning, research and reflections, visit the Dudley Creates section of CoLab Dudley’s Lab Notes publication.
Field Works: You have to go away to come back
In Garbett and Laybourne’s Compendium of Aphorisms, Sayings and Terms, the entry on page eight reads “You have to go away to come back”. This is a phrase we use often and it means that even though our work is hyper-locally focused sometimes we need to head off, get away and wander further afield in search of different places, new experiences and inspiration. We bring back ideas, creative energy, artistic material and fresh ways of thinking.
