Digitally Different Photography Exhibition
Wednesday 8 Mar @ Hedon Museum
HEDON VIEWFINDERS presents the Digitally Different FREE Photography Exhibition at the Hedon Museum, which opens on Wednesday, March 8 at 10 am and then opens every Saturday and Wednesday from 10 am – 4 pm until Saturday, April 29.
Our youngest exhibitor is 13 years old and our oldest is in his 90’s. Photography really is for everyone,” continued Ray, “and the club exists to encourage people on their own photographic journeys of discovery.”
“The exhibition comprises a collection of photographs that the club is proud of, and we hope they serve to inspire many visitors, both young and old, to get out with their cameras and phones to take more and better photographs.”

Rhys James: Spilt Milk
Wednesday 8 Mar @ Hull City Hall

Since then he’s released a third, ARIA-nominated, Radio 4 series; starred in The Great American Joke Off for US network The CW; and been hurled through the air on a bungee cord by Micah Richards on A League Of Their Own.

Rediscovering Ferens | Identity
Friday 10 Mar @ Ferens Art Gallery
The Rediscovering Ferens | Identity project is a collaboration between the Ferens Art Gallery and young people from The Warren and Future Ferens. In late 2022 and early 2023, the Rediscovering group explored what identity means to them, to communities in Hull, and how our multiple, fluid identities are represented by art in the Ferens collection.
The group has worked collaboratively with a curator to choose items from the collection, to co-produce an exhibition that will also feature new works created in response to the themes of Identity.
