Day 2 of the Exhibition

Off to a great start with the exhibition being featured in Saturday's Daily Echo, with a few lucky entries showcased to the Bournemouth community, inviting the public down


With the weather not as amazing as yesterday's, we thought we would be in trouble but the pier was just as busy, from tourists, student and locals. We even managed time for an ice cream!

Here are a few highlights from today, it was awesome to see how many people were interested in the historical photographs wanting to know more about what thing were like.


This selection of photographs illustrates the diversity, culture and community within Bournemouth which still view the pier as a historic, recognised and respective landmark within their town. The seaside persona is part of Bournemouth's upbringing, it's one of the reason why we love it! 



We were nearly swamped at one point! Crowd control! Must have been the lunchtime rush...

GLASS Events team antics in the sunshine!

Getting ready for the weekend's exhibition ahead, the GLASS Events team took a trip to the beach to prepare marketing and the site!

Here are a few pictures of what they got up to, out and about in Bournemouth...


Posters up, advertising the community photography exhibition running from the 5th - 8th March 2010 along Bournemouth's pier.


One of the GLASS Events team couldn't resist the beach after all that work! She's not building a sand castle though...




Pop down! It is a free exhibition of Bournemouth communities photographs, we hope to see you all there! And for those of you who have supported and participated in the project we hope you can make our award ceremony in 'Hot Rocks' pier approach. For venue information please see our award ceremony page.
