Millgate shopping Centre, Bury. Window display in former butcher's shop.
August 2022.
Our theme was 'Our Bury'. An exhibition of work by Bury Art Collective members each representing an aspect of the town that is memorable or meaningful to them.
Famous local people, the scenery on a regular walk, little known back streets, the East Lancs Railway, and the often overlooked architecture of this old industrial town.
