Washington: Fact, Fiction and Folklore
A multi-media exhibition to celebrate Washington’s past, both real and mythical, marking 60 years as a New Town.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Washington Heritage Partnership has worked with Arts Centre Washington and Washington Old Hall to deliver this exciting new arts project, built around Washington’s multi-layered history.
Taking inspiration from the book of the same name by Fred Hill, the local historian and schoolmaster who played a key role in saving Washington Old Hall, local artists from the Sunderland Indie collective have produced a multimedia exhibition of contemporary art.
From July, the exhibition will move on to Arts Centre Washington.
