Middlesbrough Pride of Place Project and the Middlesbrough Caravan Gallery Tour.
extra{ordinary} – Photographs of Britain by The Caravan Gallery: This major exhibition will tour to six galleries and museums from March 2015 until December 2016. The fifth leg of the tour will be hosted by mima, Middlesbrough.
extra{ordinary} is a national touring exhibition of over one hundred colour photographs made over the last fifteen years, that shows the extraordinary in the everyday, and is itself an extraordinary record of social change since the millennium. The exhibition will be accompanied by a full colour hardback publication.
The mima exhibition will be supported by an offsite participatory MIDDLESBROUGH PRIDE OF PLACE PROJECT where we invite local people to help The Caravan Gallery create a vibrant evolving exhibition celebrating the character of Middlesbrough. A unique Middlesbrough Pride of Place Project publication will be produced, documenting the area and including contributions from the general public. Each Pride of Place Project has its own Facebook group.
THE CARAVAN GALLERY MIDDLESBROUGH TOUR: a mobile exhibition in the caravan will visit six different locations in the region to publicise the above activities and encourage the people of Middlesbrough to get involved.
Please check the Associated Events regularly (to the top right of this page) to find out more about the Exhibition Events, how to get involved with the Middlesbrough Pride of Place Project and where to find us during The Caravan Gallery Tour.
The Caravan Gallery hopes to see you soon at a venue near you!
