Come and explore photography documenting the experiences and stories of our local Hackney Community. In partnership with Future Hackney.
On display now! We're excited to be partnering with Future Hackney to share stories of our Hackney community through the lens of local photographers.
This exhibition displays pieces from Don Travis' and Wayne Crinchlow's 'Gillet Square Stories', a living archives of experiences, stories, past and present, with a focus on documenting Dalston’s radical black history and African and Caribbean communities.
We're also proud to present work by Connie Swift, a London-based photographer capturing the experiences of young women in the city, from heady nights out to intimate moments between mates. Focusing on the women in her own life, her work is an intimate and honest portrait of growing up in London today.
Future Hackney collaborate with East London's intergenerational communities to create documentaries, exhibitions, and bodies of work emphasising creative communication and social inclusion. Find out more about their work here.
Entry is free and there's no need to book ahead, just let our welcome desk team know you're visiting for the exhibition.
