Slideshow Press release

On the 19th of November a group of 1st year interactive arts students from the Manchester School of Art are holding a special one night exhibition at the Salutation Pub on the MMU campus.

The school of art has within its walls a unique visual resource that's existence is currently threatened. The Visual Resources Centre is a library of images in slide format that chronicle the history of the school of art, the history of Manchester and anything else you could imagine.


For a taste of the unique imagery please visit the flikr page here

Students for across the art school are producing work in response to the imagery in the archive and there will also be slideshow presentations of course. Please come along to this public event for the chance to check out some really inspiring work and some images you will quite likely never otherwise get the chance to see while supporting our efforts to save this resource for the future students and people of Manchester and the world.

We will be holding monthly themed short presentations and talks of no more than half an hour, if you are interested in being one of our guest presenters then please get in touch here saveourslides@gmail.com
