SUMMARY:In the City Exhibition – Talk by Richard Davis
DESCRIPTION:In The City is a collection of Manchester images taken by photographer Richard Davis over the last 35 Years. Join Richard for this talk about the exhibtion that centres around Richard’s love of art\, music\, culture and football. From the heady days of Madchester\, right through to the dynamism of the present day\, the excitement and diversity of city life helping to inspire and motivate his work. Hulme plays a major role throughout the exhibition; it’s where Richard set up a studio and darkroom in his Charles Barry Crescent flat during the late 1980’s.

SUMMARY:Section 28 - 35 years on in Manchester
DESCRIPTION:This year marks 35 years since the protest against Section 28 in Manchester. Join organisers and attendees from the time to hear more. The event forms part of LGBT History month 2023. It aims to provide insight into a specific period of LGBT history (1987-2003) in which the demonstration in Manchester was highly significant\, and which gained national recognition at the time. It will be an opportunity for those who were there organising the demonstration in 1988 to talk about the climate and their experience. There will be an introductory presentation on Section 28\, covering the build up to its inception\, and why it caused so much controversy and protest. This element recognises that the legislation has been off the statute books for a generation now\, and so an explanation will both help to understand the clause as well as the impact it had. There will also be an opportunity for questions from the audience to the speakers\, and a closing section focusing on the future. \nFree – book via link below
