This event provides a unique opportunity to enjoy the stunning photographic collection ‘The Talbot Archive’. Thee photography catalogues Lancashire life from the 1930s through to the 1990s from Blackburn photographers Wally and Howard Talbot.
This collection forms a wonderful archive of local life that will increase in value as a vital piece of social documentary photography in a regional and national context. The staff and students at Blackburn College are key to helping protect and promote the heritage of Blackburn by digitising this collection and securing its existence for future generations to enjoy.
