Photography exhibition and awards event

Since the start of the year, student photographers from Kendal College have been visiting businesses and charities across Cumbria to photograph the work they are doing to build a fair and more sustainable world. The project and the exhibition are intended to highlight the efforts being made across the county to champion and embed equity, community and environmental sustainability as well as to provide a platform for charity workers, business leaders, and community members to connect, share ideas and inspire hope for a fairer and more sustainable future.

The exhibition is now at The Wildman Gallery, Kendal LA9 6EN which is open to the public on the following days:

Tuesday 22nd April - 3.30-4.30pm
Tuesday 29th April - 3.30-4.30pm

In May, the exhibition will move to Kendal Town Hall where it will feature as part of a celebration event for projects funded through the council's Climate and Nature fund. Watch this space for details.

 

The exhibition is FREE to attend, but please consider making a donation - all money collected will be shared equally between the charities represented in the project.
