Manc Holes and Beyond Exhibition
The Manchester Manhole Collective is proud to present Manc Holes and Beyond, the world’s first exhibition celebrating the art and design of manhole & drain covers. These well-trodden yet often overlooked works of art that adorn the streets, roads & pavements of Manchester and beyond.
Amaze at how these heavy industrial designs exemplify art at the heart of cities and towns and witness how they have inspired individuals to photograph, paint, write poems & books, create ceramics, make films and produce interior designs such as fabrics and wallpapers. Our hope is to encourage people to seek out these urban art forms, engage their imaginations, be inspired, and join community of operculists knowing that creative activities help improve mental health and wellbeing.
Whilst creative pursuits help improve mental health and wellbeing, the services of charities in the arena of mental health are indispensable. As such, The Manchester Manhole Collective, encourage individuals to support We are Survivors, the Manchester based charity that offers help male survivors of sexual abuse.
