Our Town Hall: Portraits of a workforce exhibition
Our Town Hall: Portraits of a workforce exhibition | Manchester City Council
A new exhibition at Manchester Central Library is set to focus on some of the skilled craftspeople, artisan trades and the construction team behind the current transformation of Manchester's Town Hall. The exhibition’s focus is to highlight some of the people behind the work. As well as modern construction workers and the behind-the-scenes staff who make it all possible there are some incredible heritage trades involved. Stonemasonry, mosaic making, stained glass repair and manufacture, horology: these are all crafts that would have been widespread in the 1870s but are now very much specialist and rare trades. They are, however, critical to our restoration project. The exhibition will run in Manchester Central Library's first floor exhibition space from Friday 18 October 2024 until June 2025.
Opening Date: 18 October 2024 Closing Date: June 2025
