Setting Up
The
village hall was
transformed into an exciting, interactive exhibition
in just a few
hours,
as artists and community members installed display
boards,
projection screens, hung
exhibits from the rafters, decked
out a
gazebo,
laid out table top displays and much more. |

The Exhibits
The exhibits shared the many images, sounds and words from the
project
work with
groups.
Old photos, kindly donated by community members, helped
to create the ‘BIG
Portrait
of a
Village at Play’ across the sixty years. Creative work, illustrating
play
interests of
community members was also exhibited. |

Viewing the Exhibits
An
intriguing focal point was the Environmental Group’s huge map of the
village which visually
plotted many memories of play and project
finds around Wolvey, as well as sound recordings
of play memories
by long-time village residents. Wolvey Local History Group brought
part
of their photographic archive which created massive
interest. |
