Join Martin Parr as he discusses the Black Country Stories exhibition project with Emma Chetcuti of Multistory.

Over the last 4 years, Magnum photographer, Martin Parr, has created a photographic portrait and archive of life in the Black Country through photography, film and oral histories.

Martin has made many visits to Walsall, Wolverhampton, Sandwell and Dudley, meeting a wide range of local people. He has visited shops and markets, places of worship, football grounds, factories, pubs and clubs, dances and parties, cafés and restaurants, dog training classes, summer fêtes and street parties celebrating the Royal Wedding and Diamond Jubilee.

Commissioned by Multistory, working in partnership with The New Art Gallery Walsall and Wolverhampton Art Gallery with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, find our more about the project and book your place in advance by calling 01922 654400.
