\u201cWhen they did the building up, and we fitted the shops, they went out to the community and asked the community, what would you like to see in these spaces?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs a result, we’ve got the art space and we’ve got a Youth Project, which has been quite transformative for that bit of Longsight, because otherwise it would have been probably another takeaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt’s funny because you don’t realise until these things open in the community, but we’ve got several artists that live in Longsight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt’s been really great for them to have that kind of organisation and outlet right in the community for them to kind of showcase their skills and their arts\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe entrance to Crowcroft Park, where the festival is set to be held. Photo credit: Zoe Spencer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSuzanne emphasised the importance of the festival being curated by people in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey don’t want it to be them organising it, they want it to be the whole community\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Resident of Longsight and director of SNUG in Longsight, Claire Biggs, has also been heavily involved in the organisation of the festival this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Claire said: \u201cThe festival is due to be on the 17th<\/sup> August but we are still in the early planning stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cLongsight Community Art Space are holding the space for the community groups to come in and do different sections of the festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Showcase of local groups <\/h2>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt will be a good showcase for all the local Longsight community groups to showcase what they do but also for the whole community to come together as a celebration of the cultures in the area and everything that is Longsight\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Claire hopes that the local library, as well as schools will get involved with the festival, as well as the police and the fire brigade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe local councillors and the council neighbourhood team are all behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Big festival day <\/h2>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe aim would be to have this big festival day, with activities run by all the different groups\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were plans to hold a Longsight festival last summer but this was halted due to lack of preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Claire said: \u201cLast year the friends of Crowcroft Park were meant to be heading it, but it got to the point where it was very close and nothing had been planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf this goes well, we will try and do the same thing next year\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
