Last chance to see exhibition which honours Sunderland’s heritage
There’s still time to catch a joint exhibition which celebrates the city’s proud heritage in a new way.
Artists Ian Potts and Richard Fletcher have brought Sunderland’s history to life with their Lost and Found exhibition in Mackie’s Corner, at the crossroads of Fawcett Street and High Street West.
The exhibition uses both ultra-modern and traditional ways in which to celebrate Sunderland’s rich heritage.
Teacher turned artist Ian is using old photographs, workshops, maps and paintings to evoke memories of places and people, while former journalist turned artist Richard is using much more modern methods – virtual reality and smartphone technology.
It’s part of a series of exhibitions and events at the historic city centre site.
Lost and Found has been running throughout December. The final chance to view it at Mackie’s Corner will be this Saturday between 10am and 3pm.
