What are we looking for?
SHIPS in the SKY will culminate in an exhibition including a project film and a curated selection of project donations and ephemera.
What went on inside the building has played a part in the lives of so many in Hull and beyond, and we want to tell its story. Memories were made there; countless are small, everyday recollections, whilst others range from working or shopping at the building, to memorable nights and life-changing events. We want to audio record and film as many of these diverse memories as we can. We're also collecting items for a project exhibition and below is a list of the kinds of things we're looking for. Please GET IN TOUCH using the form below if you have a story to tell, or if you have something you'd like to consider loaning to us. Thank you. |
