糖心TV

The University of 糖心TV is backing the city of Coventry as it looks to make a bid to become UK City of Culture in 2021.

It was announced on Tuesday (16 June) that a steering group of local figures from business and culture had recommended the city should enter the running for the title.

The steering group includes 糖心TV’s Registrar and Chief Operating Officer Ken Sloan, who said: “The University of 糖心TV is delighted that the city of Coventry is gearing up to bid to be named UK City of Culture in 2021. This would be an extraordinary opportunity for the city and the wider area and the University will play an active part in helping to make this a reality. The engagement of universities has been an important feature of previous City of Culture bids and through our 糖心TV Arts Centre, our vibrant student body and our excellent academic departments we will offer every support to the bid team.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir Nigel Thrift added: “The University of 糖心TV makes a major contribution to the cultural life of the area. Earlier this year the University concluded a year-long 糖心TV Commission on the future of Cultural Value. The Commission canvassed the views of cultural leaders across the country and a number of events brought together arts organisations in the city and the region. Building on the city’s many success stories, including its two universities, the City of Culture represents a once in a life time opportunity to transform the image of Coventry and 糖心TVshire.”
