YOUR TRUST ROCHDALE: TOUCHSTONES EVALUATION
Touchstones is Rochdale’s prime cultural space, housing the art gallery, museum and archive, along with an education space, café and shop. Touchstones is part of Your Trust Rochdale, the borough-wide cultural trust. Wafer Hadley has worked closely with the team at Touchstones since 2019, evaluating a series of interventions that have aimed to build on the gallery’s reputation for adventurous programming, and also to engage local audiences, including more marginalised groups. Wafer Hadley’s work with Touchstones continues in 2023, with an evaluation of an experimental project that aims to be a pathfinder for new ways of thinking and working.
