We The Curious and Watershed’s reopening in Bristol24/7 Behind the Headlines podcast

By Bristol24/7  Friday May 21, 2021

Project What If at We The Curious is now open, more than three years since it was first envisaged.

In the new episode of the Bristol24/7 Behind the Headlines podcast, we talk to Amelia Howarth, content lead for the groundbreaking new ground floor exhibition which can finally welcome visitors for the first time.

Co-presenters Ian Downs and Martin Booth also speak to Watershed chief executive, Clare Reddington, who has now reopened the doors of their building.

We also hear from Bristol mayor Marvin Rees on the themes of gentrification and how it might have contributed to the ‘Green surge’ in the recent local elections.

Bristol24/7 Behind the Headlines is a new weekly podcast taking a more detailed look at the issues that matter across our city.
