Exmouth Together (EXALT)
Exmouth Together (EXALT)
There are three articles recently published in the Exmouth Journal about the launch of an exciting new initiative called 'Exmouth Altogether' (EXALT) which will be of particular interest to those of us involved in the arts in Exmouth. The first article is by John Astley and the second (which explains the thinking behind this) is by Cliff Gorman. The third article, also by John Astley, gives the latest information about this and outlines its aims (and see below for all three articles)
EXALT now has a website which is at https://www.exmouthaltogether.org/ . Please take a look, and it would be really appreciated if you could spare a few minutes to complete the questionnaire on this link: EXALT questionnaire

EDDC's Culture Strategy
EDDC's Culture Strategy
In March 2022 we were invited to put forward our views on East Devon's cultural scene for the next decade - https://eastdevon.gov.uk/community-engagement/culture-strategy-consultation/. This is all about about East Devon’s cultural scene – including everything from our museums and theatres to art galleries. It all comes as part of a new cultural strategy East Devon District Council has developed which sets out an ambitious, ten-year vision and plan of action for how EDDC can develop and deliver creative activities across East Devon. The strategy is being made with the help of consultants Festivals and Events International (FEI).
The culture strategy was published later on in 2022, and you can read it and download it from the EDDC website at https://eastdevon.gov.uk/media/3724566/culture-strategy-2022-2031.pdf
Call to Exmouth residents to help rejuvenate seafront
Call to Exmouth residents to help rejuvenate seafront
An art gallery is encouraging Exmouth residents to join a new project which hopes to rejuvenate a section of the Exmouth seafront. The Abode of Love is a 342-foot long, flood defence in Exmouth and is a popular area for residents and tourists. The Thelma Hulbert Gallery alongside Exmouth artist Anna Fitzgerald, will be creating a ‘To be continued...’ commission at the Abode of Love and wants to hear the opinions from local artists and creatives on what the future of the area should look like.
