SUMMARY:Q&A: Karen McBride: Just A Girl From North Manchester
DESCRIPTION:Join Karen McBride for a special evening where she will present ‘Just a Girl from North Manchester: A Photographic Exhibition‘; talking about the stories behind the photographs\, the making of the exhibition\, and the journey that led to ‘Just a Girl from North Manchester’. \nFor over 30 years\, Karen has documented the people\, places and music that have shaped Manchester. Her new exhibition brings together a personal collection of black-and-white photographs\, stories and memories from behind the camera. \nThe work follows on from her book\, ‘Just a Girl from North Manchester’\, and explores a lifetime spent documenting musicians\, communities and everyday moments that might otherwise have been forgotten. \nDisplayed throughout the exhibition are nine original vintage library display cabinets that were especially designed for Manchester Central Library when the building first opened. They provide the perfect setting for a journey through Manchester’s musical and cultural history. One cabinet\, however\, will house something very special that celebrates Karen’s lifelong love of traditional black-and-white photography\, craftsmanship and making things by hand—qualities that have always been part of Manchester’s industrious spirit. \nWhether you’re interested in photography\, Manchester’s music scene\, local history or simply enjoy discovering something different\, Karen McBride invites you to come along to an evening that will take you into her storied life and behind ‘Just a Girl from North Manchester: A Photographic Exhibition‘. \nKaren will be in-conversation with Nicola Howard. \nThere will also be live music from: Shimeon. \nLive @ Central Library Performance Space. 6pm-7.30pm. \nTickets – just pay-what-you-like. \nAll donations to Manchester Libraries to enable future activities.
