Art Treasures Community Programme
Wythenshawe, Rusholme and Collyhurst people create artwork inspired by the Art Treasures exhibition and the history of their local area
Inspired by the content of the Art Treasures exhibition, nine groups of local people from Wythenshawe, Rusholme and Collyhurst developed their own artwork celebrating their individual and community heritage over the past 150 years.
