We have had Phil Ogg, our Artist in Residence with us for a week, and now it is time to delight you with the fruits of his labours.

Come and see Chorlton Soundscape, in the Festival Hub (next to Boots) in Chorlton Precinct.

Phil has been recording some of the community’s favourite sounds from around Chorlton. You may hear sounds you recognize, and some you don’t. You may hear the sounds that were your personal contributions.

We’ve transformed the empty shop into a gallery space to showcase Chorlton Soundscape and an assocaiated Chorlton film projection too…will you be able to tell where it is?

Preview: Tuesday 25 May 5.30-6.30pm (use side entrance between Quality Save and Boots )
Exhibition open: Wed 26 – Sun 30 May 10am – 4pm (free)
