Hexham's shopping scene will be inspired by a series of animations. HEXHAM’S rich history is to be celebrated in a series of animations which will be projected in the town centre later this year. An exciting new pilot project has been announced by Hexham Culture Network, which will work with local artists and residents to create the animations, which will be projected across the town’s main shopping streets in the autumn. It is hoped they will help to define why Hexham's heritage is important to the community and what value the town centre will have in the future.
