Drop in to see a selection of objects from the archive of Andy Spinoza, one of the founders of City Life. Andy will also be on hand to chat and answer all your questions about the magazine and its archives. Launched in December 1983, City Life was the starting point for the careers of various well-known writers, broadcasters and authors, such as Mark Kermode, Jon Ronson, Emma Unsworth, Gwendoline Riley, Jon Robb and Danny Brocklehurst.

The search goes on!
