…and you are all invited!

This summer the Fab Collective are returning to St Luke’s (the ‘bombed out church’ at the top of Bold Street, Liverpool), with a new exhibition ‘Having a do’, which is open from Saturday 31st July until Monday 30th August.

Fab photographer Mark Maloney explains the theme:

“This exhibition looks at how people celebrate life through the events that they go to. Throughout the year we get invited to all sorts of different events including birthday parties, retirement dos, funerals, christenings, weddings, new year, religious and cultural festivals etc.

At each one the setting, the mood and the colours change and people dress differently according to each occasion. Each event generates different emotions and feelings. We thought it would be interesting – and fun – to capture these in our photos.”

Read more about the exhibition in this fantastic preview from the Daily Post.

If the Collective took your photo during the Fab Faces 2010 day in May then you could be part of the party. A montage featuring a selection of these portraits will also be displayed in the exhibition.

The exhibition will be open 12-4pm, Thursday to Sunday, depending on the weather as this is an open air venue – you are advised to check on the day to see if we are open. We’ll keep you up to date on facebook and twitter.

Fab people do fab things. It’s not just Magnum that have all the fun.

The Fab Collective are currently entirely self funded. However if you would like to sponsor any of our activities or future exhibitions then we would love to hear from you. Please contact info@fabcollective.com

We would like to thank Urban Strawberry Lunch and the Ship & Mitre pub for their support for the exhibition and the Collective. Thanks also to the many people of Liverpool who we have photographed.
