Bulwell Arts Festival kicks off with a family fun day
Co-ordinator Nicola Curzon said: “We will have far more varied and free events than ever before. This year is sure to top the rest.”
Comprising a total of 32 events, the programme will kick off with a family fun day at Bulwell Academy, featuring a world-exclusive exhibition entitled ‘Dinosaurs of China’.
