This exhibition shows photographs of Bolton taken by Anna White during her 2010/11 John Marriott Humphrey Spender scholarship year.
The exhibition is supported by Bolton le Moors Rotary Club and the University of Bolton.
Anna was tasked with re-interpreting Humphrey Spender’s Worktown project of the 1930s, and for the last year have been documenting everyday life in Bolton. The poet Andrew McMillian has also created original works based on interviews taken in Bolton.
As part of the project in October 2011, Anna came into the Museum and outside the Town Hall to take photographs of Boltonians. Everyone who was photographed received a free copy of their image and all images will go into the Museums Bolton archive for further generations to look at; as well as some of them going into this exhibition. Come along and see if you are featured!
