2008 European Capitals of Culture
Come
with Susan and Michael this week to Stavanger, Norway and Liverpool,
England to discover all these two cities have in store for us starting
in January as the 2008 European Capitals of Culture.
Guests Trond
Giske, Norwegian Minister of Culture and Anna Maloney, Liverpool 08
Promotions Manager, give us a taste of the events and attractions of
their 2008 celebrations and also give us plenty of reasons to visit
their historic cities at any time.
The
European City of Culture program was conceived in 1985 when the great
Greek actress Melina Mercouri was Greece's Minister of Culture. Athens
was the first city. In 1999, it was renamed European Capital of
Culture. Paris, Genoa, Bruges, Helsinki, Lisbon, Madrid, Florence and
