Salford Museum and Art Gallery Presents Life through the Lens

October 5, 2010 – 10:35 amNo Comment

To celebrate 10 years of Lifetimes, this exhibition, open through Spring 2011, shows the very best photographs from the collections held at the museum and local history library.

Focusing on the themes of dress and fashion, local characters and the changing environment, these photographs tell Salford’s story from the perspective of local people.

Families can enjoy the climb in camera, a dark room set up with a photographer’s equipment and a shadow puppet theatre. There is also the Lifetimes Link room with all the back issues and Captions Corner where you can put your own caption with some of the weird and wonderful images we discovered.
