A demonstration is planned for Saturday April
20th at 11am outside the Museum in John Frost Square to protest against this
decision to shut Newport Art Gallery's TEP and against the destruction of
heritage and culture by Newport City Council. While Newport Council voted to
close Temporary Exhibitions on February 26th, the ultimate aim is to close and
then "relocate" the entire Museum, Library and Art Gallery to make a
saving of £700,000 but putting 60 jobs at risk.
