Lincoln Cultural Quarter: Life Long Learning at the Collection

Welcome to the Lincoln Cultural Quarter blogspot

The City of Lincoln has a long tradition as a regional centre for creative people.

Artists and designers live and work in the city and their skills not only enrich the local economy but inspire Lincoln’s cultural scene as well.

The performing arts also add an exciting vibrancy to the culture of the City.

Lincoln's Cultural Quarter, the area incorporating the Collection, the Usher Art Gallery, Lincoln Drill Hall and the Terrace Creative Industries building, provides a creative hub for local cultural activity.

The Theatre Royal, Central Library, Lincoln College and the Lincolnshire County Archive further enrich the cultural theme of the area. Great pubs, clubs and restaurants, as well as an emerging café culture, all add to the mix to make it a great place to be.

On this blog you will find links to the main facilities in the area and up to the minute news of what's going on in the area.
Link up with us and be sure of a warm welcome in Lincoln’s Cultural Quarter.
