Cultural Olympiad present Discovering Places and Open Weekend

Marian Cleary, of Disability Arts Online, gives a rundown of some upcoming Cultural Olympiad events.

"Two Cultural Olympiad events to take place during 2010 are aimed at opening up arts and culture to new audiences and organisers want non-commercial organisations to get involved in developing and planning how these projects shape up.

Discovering Places launches in May 2010 and the annual London 2012 Open Weekend is being held from 23 - 25 July 2010.

In anticipation, London 2012 organisers are inviting organisations and individuals to attend an Information Sharing morning on Wednesday 13 January 2010 at Amersham and Wycombe College in Chesham. The event kicks off at 10.30 am and will include presentations from Creative Programmer for London 2012 - Caterina Loriggio, Chair of Discovering Places - Ian Lush and Project Manager for Open Weekend, London 2012 - Roli Barker."
