The Books Rock at Blackpool Central Library
Young people in Blackpool successfully applied for Youth Opportunities funding in 2009 to enable the Central Library to host "Band Nites" over a twelve month period. These have been held bi-monthly, commencing in May 2009, and have been held on a Friday evening from 7.00 - 9.00. They were for the 13 - 17 age range, with the specific intention of keeping people off the streets . All the bands were local groups trying to find an audience and improve their performance skills.
The pictures show how successful these evenings proved to be with up to 200 young people making the library "rock" on more than one occasion.
