The John Peel Centre for Creative Arts is celebrating this week after the Mid Suffolk District Council's planning commitee approved their application to make necessary changes to the building.
At the end of 2010 the John Peel Centre the bid for the £50,000 grant from the Big Lottery Fund (BFL)! UK community groups were invited to bid for a share the 3.6 million from the BFL and the community spirit of Stowmarket stepped up to support the cause, securing the win.
Earlier this year the centre had students involved in desgning the layout of the venue. The exhibition took place in May 2011, seeing Matthew Loosley win the competition, bagging £500 and a placement with Martindales of Cambridge to develop the winning design into the overall scheme.
Since then the centre has been putting on gigs before renovation takes place. This has proved extrememly popular, as can be seen by the support they are recieving through their facebook page.
Dont miss out on this weeks upcoming event ont the 26th August.

If you want to see some genuine TALENT from a band that deserve to go far, you must watch the B Goodes since they are in Stowmarket at this event! I saw them for the first time last Friday, and it is a rare thing for me to LOVE a band from the first time I see them! Their vocals are amazing, and they put on a great show! They will have you stomping your feet in no time!
