SUMMARY:Williamson Art Gallery & Museum: Williamson Art Gallery: Craig East
 on: artist talk and exhibition tour
DESCRIPTION:\nCraig Easton: artist talk and exhibition tour\n\nFREE\n\n\nBo
 ok Now\n\nTo celebrate the current exhibition at the Williamson Museum &am
 p\; Gallery\, “Craig Easton: Is Anybody Listening?”\, we invite you to
  join a one-hour conversation delving into the ethical considerations and 
 the evolving role of social documentary photography in contemporary societ
 y.\n\nCraig Easton challenges conventional stereotypes of Northern communi
 ties by authentically representing them in his work. “Is Anybody Listeni
 ng?” showcases two award-winning series\, namely Bank Top and Thatcher
 ’s Children\, both aimed at shining light on and challenging stereotypes
 .\n\nTo set the stage\, Craig will lead a guided tour of the exhibitions\,
  introducing the two projects.\n\nWe encourage active participation in the
  discussion\, exploring topics such as the role of the ‘outsider’ phot
 ographer\, ethical and critically engaged approaches to community collabor
 ation\, and the growing responsibility of photographers in an era where so
 cial media alters the dynamics of storytelling.\n\n“Is Anybody Listening
 ?” is presented by the University of Salford\, generously supported by t
 he National Lottery Heritage Fund. The exhibition includes a dedicated eng
 agement programme\, “Our Time\, Our Place\,” – including a body of w
 orks produced by photographers mentored by Craig throughout 2023 – with 
 the goal of inspiring and elevating the aspirations of young people across
  the North West region.\n\n
