Join photographers Sasha Mallo Tardiveau and Hazel Plater for an afternoon of looking, walking and taking pictures together. We’ll start inside Under Development: What Happens When Cities Change?, where families will explore how photographers have recorded Newcastle and other changing neighbourhoods over the past fifty years.
Then it’s your turn.
Young photographers will be given the Newcastle Now commission: show us what Newcastle looks and feels like to you today.
Sasha and Hazel will lead an easy walk through the city centre, with photography challenges along the way. Look for old and new Newcastle, things other people walk straight past, favourite places, strange details, signs of change and the people and activity that make up the city.
There’s no right way to photograph a city and no fancy kit required. Bring a digital camera, compact camera, camera phone or whatever you like taking pictures with. Adults can get involved too.
Please sign up for your free ticket here - there are a limited number of places.
