Join us in the Gallery during our Heritage Festival for a Working Class Creatives Database meet up! This is an opportunity to network with like-minded people in a relaxed, informal and creative environment.
The evening will open with a performance by Jennifer Ballads followed by a group discussion with prompts given live by author Paul O’Kane based on his book Classanoia.
The discussion will focus around the concept of class migration and how people can move between social classes throughout their lives. After the discussion you will have the opportunity to view our current photography exhibition Many Hands and chat to other attendees.
You are welcome to attend if you are a member of the database, if you're interested in joining or if you'd just like to be part of the discourse!
Many Hands is Sunny Bank Mills Gallery’s first major group photography exhibition. Created in collaboration with Working Class Creatives, the show explores the role that industry plays in shaping community, identity and tradition.
The exhibition weaves together stories of working-class people from the 70s to present, through the lens of a selection of UK based artists.
