Greater Manchester building to be transformed into 70-metre artwork
manchestereveningnews.co.ukA historic Greater Manchester building which once served as a town hall is to be transformed into a giant 70-metre 3D artwork that will be free to visit later this month.
Salford Civic Centre, which was formerly Swinton & Pendlebury Town Hall from 1938 until the formation of the City of Salford in 1974, will be illuminated with a stunning new animated projection on two evenings in January as part of a new exhibition inspired by Swinton and its residents.
Swinton Ark, which will run on January 16 and 17, will feature a bespoke 3D-mapped animation projected onto the exterior of the building, which features a 125-foot-high clock tower.
The artwork will feature an 'enormous cabinet of curiosities' featuring objects, moment and memories from the Swinton archive.
