BBC Northern Ireland is celebrating 70 years of the BBC at Ormeau Avenue in Belfast, it was announced today. The construction of the BBC's Broadcasting House got properly underway in 1939 and continued throughout the early years of the Second World War. The building and its work have grown since then, reflecting changes in technology and the needs of BBC audiences.
Broadcasting House now provides services across radio, television and online and is a production centre for local and network programmes. It's also the main location for BBC Northern Ireland's news and recording studios.
A season of events and activities to mark Broadcasting House's 70th birthday began today with the launch of a public art competition to create a picture of BBC Northern Ireland at its home in Broadcasting House.
Adults and children are being invited to produce a picture of the BBC at Broadcasting House in Belfast or a picture of what the BBC means to them.
A panel of judges, led by BBC Northern Ireland's Mark Carruthers, will have the task of deciding which entries will be chosen for a special BBC art exhibition.
Mark Carruthers said: "BBC Broadcasting House has been very much a part of our history for the past 70 years and when you work in it every day you become very used to it and tend to forget this fact.
"It will be fascinating to see other people's perspectives on the building. So get those brushes out and get painting!"
