About the project
Tory Hayward’s ‘100 Eggs for Ukraine’ exhibition is being supported by a City Arts bursary. It was awarded as part of our RESIDENCE project. Tory was for selected the bursary by a panel of residents from St Anns & Sneinton.
RESIDENCE is designed to connect artists with Nottingham’s communities. Local people become ‘Community Curators’. They design projects and commission artists, working together to explore the lives of people in Nottingham. The project offers people the power to define how culture can make a difference to their community.
