We had a great time hosting the @WorldMonuments Fund staff at Carlisle Memorial to chat about our past and future work since the building was Watch listed in 2010.
Carlisle Memorial used to be home to some artists between 1980 and around 2000. Our 'Engaging Art' project last June explored the story of this.
Keike Twisselmann, one of the people who once made art in the building, returns to it as part of Look North!
