Inspire's 10th Birthday

Happy 10th Birthday to Inspire!

Number 10 with text "inspiring culture, learning and libraries since 2016"

1 April 2026 officially marks 10 years since Inspire was established! Over the last decade, we’ve built something we're proud of for the people of Nottinghamshire: spaces and services that bring reading, learning and culture to life. But we couldn't have done it without you - our wonderful customers, audiences, learners, and members. 

We're spending the whole year celebrating and you're invited to join us! 

Keep an eye on this webpage for more information about how you can get involved.
