Winter Lights Festival

Descriptions

Enfield Council launched its 2020-2025 cultural strategy last year. The vision is "to connect Enfield through culture. We want to connect our rich history of cultivation and industry with creative activity throughout our green spaces, homes and town centres, our young people with opportunity, our diverse communities with shared celebrations and events. As culture connects us, we will see the borough grow its economy and promote its identity more widely as a bright and diverse mix of city, countryside and creativity. We will connect organisations and ambitions across the borough to achieve our vision for Enfield together. Culture connects." £150,000 has been secured as part of the Welcome Back Fund for the design and delivery of a Winter Lights Festival. This work is supported by The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) Welcome Back Fund, established through a grant from the European Regional Development Fund (EDRF). The money is helping Enfield Council put in place additional measures to establish a safe trading environment for businesses and customers in the wake of COVID-19, particularly in high streets, and support our local economy on the road to recovery.
