View of Yeovil - Photography talk with Carolyn Lefley
Join ‘View of Yeovil’ Producer Carolyn Lefley for a talk exploring the history of photography through the heritage collections in Yeovil.
Carolyn will use historic examples of different photographic techniques within the South Somerset Heritage Collection, such as Carte de Visite and Stereoscopic images. There will also be a guided tour of the ‘View of Yeovil’ exhibition, picking up on key themes and different photographic processes.
Part of the View of Yeovil event programme, which is the first part of the wider project 'Story of Yeovil'.
Story of Yeovil is a community arts and heritage project for Yeovil residents and visitors from further afield. There is a programme of events, talks, educational resources, publications, displays and workshops taking place over 18 months until March 2024.
The project explores Yeovil’s heritage and social history through the voice of local communities. We will gather stories from diverse perspectives through a series of creative activities and share them through three main themes: View of Yeovil, Sound of Yeovil and Taste of Yeovil.
