BARROW Library are collecting photos, audio, art and ephemera that tells the story of young people from Cumbria in the past 100 years.
Barrow Library want images from Barrovinas youth. They are looking for rockers, sixties hippies, eighties punks, a raver in the nineties or young people now who are happy to get involved in a national archives project in collaboration with the Museum of Youth Culture.
Everything collected will become part of The Museum of Youth Culture's digital archive and shared with Cumbria Libraries and Tullie House Museum and a selection will be exhibited. Ensuring that your stories of youth are preserved for future generations to enjoy!
They want to hear from everybody and in particular those from the LGBTQ+ community.
Pop in to Barrow Library between March 1 and April 10 or join the team at their collection social event on March 24 and 31 from 2-4pm.
