MANCHESTER ACADEMY AND MORE
CONTEMPORARY MANCHESTER
What deserves to be discovered
according to Jane Delfino at Manchester Academy
and more
“Manchester today is unrecognisable from the post-industrial city of 20 years
ago. Home to grand relics of the industrial revolution, the modern city is also
studded with independent boutiques and top-flight shops, cool bars and snug
pubs. Not only do its museums house some of the UK’s finest historic
collections, but also Manchester has a contemporary cultural pulse that
puts other British cities to shame.” (Editor Time Out Manchester)
