Picturing Eccles is a new exhibition celebrating the life and culture of Eccles through photography.Taking place in Eccles Library and various locations in The Mall, Eccles Shopping Centre.
For the past six months, photographer-in-residence Paula Keenan has been working with residents to capture the diversity of people and places that make up Eccles. A host of local community groups and the general public have explored the town through photo walks, creative workshops, collecting archived and donated images. Over plenty of cups of tea she spent time talking with people about what they love and hope for the future of Eccles.
Eccles today is on an exciting journey of major change to reinvent itself as a thriving town centre. Salford City Council is working closely with local organisations, community groups and businesses to create a town that reaches its potential and becomes the best place it can be. This project was formed between Salford City Council and Open Eye Gallery as a way to strengthen this vision further and celebrate local culture at this important time for Eccles.
