In 2018, we returned to hosting artists-in-residence across our three sites in Liverpool, Peterborough and Southend through time and space residences. We also launched our first Essex Writers House programme from Metal Southend in 2018, ran our Changemaker project from Metal Peterborough and took part in an International Curators Residency at Metal Liverpool.
