About this event

As a working-class artist and photographer, Tricia Ashworth has always been fascinated by what society deems ordinary. The beauty, the nuances, humour, strength and steeliness of everyday life in the ordinary. This exhibition of portraits, from the north-west and beyond, explores and celebrates the extraordinary. Free – just drop in. Please make a donation to support our Library Live cultural programme at one of our cash or contactless donation boxes or online.
