Liverpool Through Our Lens exhibition is on at the World Gymnastics Championship 2022 Fanzone

The exhibition is the result of a partnership between Community Integrated Care and Open Eye Gallery to deliver photography workshops to a group of Inclusive Volunteers.

Liverpool Through Our Lens is a unique photography programme that has enabled people supported by Community Integrated Care to enjoy specially adapted photography lessons, in Liverpool City Centre and at the photography club base – Kensington Neighbourhood Health Centre. The work displayed at the exhibition was created during six photography sessions that the Open Eye Gallery photography facilitator Sam Bately delivered for CIC’s Inclusive Volunteers during October. Together they went on different day trips to iconic Liverpool sites (Pier Head, Anfield, Sefton Park) where the volunteers used their photography skills to capture the city of Liverpool.

Their photographs of this beautiful city are being gifted as presents to the visiting gymnasts and are featured in this special exhibition for spectators to enjoy. These talents highlight Liverpool as the cultured, inclusive and beloved city.

This project encourages people who access social care to enjoy all that their amazing city offers, and inspires new passions and skills. Come and see the exhibition at the World Gymnastics Championship 2022 Fanzone (M&S Bank Arena, Kings Dock, Liverpool Waterfront, L3 4FP)!
