Culture Vannin promoting arts and culture in lockdown
Sixteen of the Island's creative freelancers have now signed up to complete projects as part of Culture Vannin's #treisht2020 campaign.
The term means 'trust, hope, or confidence' in Manx.
All manner of creatives from artists to singer-songwriters were encouraged to apply, with funding available to support them with short-term ideas related to Manx culture 'in its widest sense'.
Culture Vannin's Director, Dr Breesha Maddrell, says the response has been wonderful:

£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
