Norwich
may be UNESCO City of Literature
The
City of Norwich will bid to become England’s first UNESCO City of
Literature by 2010.
Led by literature development agency Writers’ Centre Norwich, the
bid to join Edinburgh, Melbourne and Iowa as a UNESCO City of Literature
was launched on June 25, 2009.
Norwich readers, writers, libraries, the University of East Anglia, bookshops,
printers, museums, media, the city and county councils and Arts Council
England are all involved in the bid.
Writers’ Centre Norwich’s chief executive Chris Gribble said:
Norwich is home to the oldest and best Creative Writing course in the
country and the world leading British Centre for Literary Translation.
“This bid will ensure that our amazing literary heritage will be
superseded by a future that is even more exciting,” he said
Writers’ Centre Norwich’s was formerly New Writing Partnership.
