Creative Conversations with Geoff Broadway of The Living Memory Project
Event Information
About this Event
Join the Doing In Dudley Virtual High Street for our 6th Creative Conversations event with Geoff Broadway of the Living Memory Project.
The Living Memory Project is a 3-year initiative that records and celebrates personal photography collections and everyday life stories from across the Black Country region.
Celebrating different aspects of everyday life in the Black Country the Living Memory project team has been working across the area to celebrate different aspects of everyday life that have been captured through people’s own photographs.
The images hidden in our family albums, stored away in shoeboxes, and treasured in the collections of local enthusiasts can all offer rich perspectives on our rapidly changing society. These collections are increasingly vulnerable as technology transforms how we now take and preserve photographs.
The project recors local people’s life stories and memories connected to their photography collections, making a series of new films, professionally archiving over 1000 favourite photographs, creating a new touring exhibition and much more besides.
The project was due to culminate in May 2020 with a publication of the Living Memory book and a series of exhibitions and film screenings.
Please note - we will send you the zoom link ahead of the event.
