Nice touch having a rather well spoken and congenial "door man" at the entrance We both really enjoyed this rave. I love that Birmingham had so many interesting and diverse things happening in the creative arena at the moment. Finally we are giving ourselves a reason to be named the second city! Culture and creativity is, in my mind, one of the most important factors that will ensure the continued growth and evolution of a society. When we lose art in all its forms we lose a part of our spirit. At the Where Foes Talent Come From? conference and discussion I attended recently I watched numerous presentations by people who work with men in prisons and with young people labelled as NEET. The most powerful transformational tool being the use of art and giving people access to reconnecting with their creativity, a gift and a talent that I believe is integral to our survival. We are after all creators, created in the likeness of God. When we don't use our creative gifts we are shutting down the biggest part of ourselves.
