Dear Jerry,
Mmmm, food for thought here. Innovative ideas are essential to capture the
imagination - and this one is great!! Daylight is an essential requirement
for many artistic activities, so opening up the internal space of the four
drums in such a way would significantly increase the range of possibile uses
of the NCPM as a public centre for cultural and creative activity.
Pride in Sheffield hopes such an idea can be implemented in the future.
Keep 'em coming!!
Gareth Roberts.
