DESCRIPTION:A PORTRAIT OF THE HIGH STREET @ PRESCOT\n\n\n\n\nSHAKESPEARE NO
 RTH PLAYHOUSE CAFE\n\nAND\n\nSHOPPING FRONT WINDOWS\, 5-7 ECCLESTON STR.\n
 \nOPENS 31 AUGUST\n\nSince 2021\, Tony Mallon has been working as a photog
 rapher-in-residence with local Prescot residents\, to reimagine the high s
 treet and create a contemporary portrait of the area.\n\nTony initially ra
 n a series of photography and memory fairs inviting people connected to Pr
 escot to share their own personal photographs and local social history abo
 ut the area. He then went on to establish a Prescot Photography Club. Ever
 y Saturday\, the new photography club has been exploring what makes up the
  high street using street photography and portraiture. The group have not 
 only been co-producing all of the work but have been their own curators\, 
 editing and sequencing the images and stories. An exhibition of work is a
 lso displayed from 28 September to 23 December 2023\, at Open Eye Gallery\
 , who have co-commissioned the project.\n\nThis exhibition is part of the 
 Picturing High Streets\, a three-year project led by Photoworks which incl
 udes six photographer-in-residence programmes at six high street locations
  across England\, as well as artist mentoring\, a digital nationwide mass 
 participation project and a national touring outdoor exhibition.\n\nOver t
 he past few years Knowsley Council has put a lot of hard work and investme
 nt into developing Prescot. Prescot was selected as one of the 68 high str
 eets to benefit from the High Streets Heritage Action Zone project in 2020
 . The high streets cultural programme is the widest-reaching\, community-l
 ed arts and heritage programme in the public realm that has ever been orga
 nised\, led by Historic England in partnership with Arts Council England a
 nd the National Lottery Heritage Fund.\n\nThe £3.1 million heritage-led r
 egeneration programme see’s major investment from Knowsley Council and H
 istoric England into a number of key projects in Prescot town centre. In a
 ddition\, Prescot have benefited from a series of cultural events as part 
 of the HSHAZ Cultural Programme Local Grants\, as delivered by the Prescot
  Cultural Consortium\, led by Shakespeare North Playhouse.\n\nImage: Barbe
