Explore the stories, creativity, views and histories of disabled people.
Due to Covid19 Manchester Histories Festival delivered its first ever DigiFest this month. The celebrations included an online gallery, showcasing work by disabled artists. Ten of our artists contributed work, a mixture of film, digital photography, illustration and photographs, all linked to the themes of Celebrate, Learn and Challenge. Visit the Gallery here. We're thrilled that Venture Arts artist George Parker-Conway, was commissioned by Manchester Histories to create artwork for the festival's digital brochure and here's the front cover with a stunning portrait of Alf Morris.
