  • Towards an International City of Culture
    Towards an International City of Culture Southampton City Council Arts and Heritage Strategic Vision Executive Summary This Strategic Vision defines Southampton City Council’s strategic role regarding Arts and Heritage provision within the wider context of the City of Southampton Strategy towards 2026, council priorities, the Southampton Heritage and Arts People initiative (SHAPe), and the sub-regional Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH). Southampton is a thriving and growing city with a diverse and dynamic population. However, these developments are in pockets and other parts of the city (economically, physically, socially) remain significantly deprived. We want to transform Southampton from being a gateway to a place of destination where people want to visit, put down roots and engage in community. The City has a fantastic opportunity over the next twenty years to transform its cultural offer and create an overall vibrant cultural soul, a sense of identity and uniqueness that connects people to each other and to Southampton as place. Its rich cultural makeup, internationally important heritage story and nationally dynamic arts and creative scene provide an inspirational resource for exploitation. The significance of Southampton within the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) regional development area will ensure that this potential can be realised particularly within the context of Living Places. Culture is critical to Southampton’s economic development, health and wellbeing and the creation of an attractive image of the city as a place in which people want to live, work and play. Without a vibrant cultural soul, Southampton becomes a divided, anonymous, modern and transient settlement with little civic pride or unique sense of place, and without an attractive, sustainable and stimulating environment that people value.

A: They’ve both had a dramatic face-lift. Southampton University Students’ Union (SUSU) is putting the finish- ing touches to a £5.6 million makeover that will offer three new bars, a cinema, upgraded food serv- ices and a bigger, shinier concourse. The feather in the cap of the devel- opment is a new nightclub - ‘The CUBE’. The plan to upgrade the facilities at SUSU has been in the pipeline for some years as the original building was built in 1965. Recent activity follows a memo circulated in late 2000 noting “...this building, partic- ularly the services, are long past their sell-by date...”. Numerous funding meetings and project pro- posals later, the University agreed to invest £4.3m with the Union pay- ing the remaining £1.3m. The com- prehensive redevelopment will increase the size of the concourse, which will open onto a new glass staircase providing access to all floors. There will be a larger recep- tion area and an Internet café enabling students to keep in touch while in the Union. What was the ballroom has been transformed into a pub-style bar - ‘The Bridge’, which will feature bar food and comfy chairs to create a relaxed, Brian Stevens pipe-smoking atmosphere. www.wessexscene.co.uk 1872 - WESSEX-freshers 2002 23/9/02 6:00 pm Page 2 PAGE 2 WESSEX WESSEX Wessexscene.co.uk SCENE SCENE Wessexscene.co.uk PAGE 3 The Wessex Scene is the Student’s Union’s in-house publication, writ- The Latest Freshers Week ten and edited entirely by you, the What is the students.
