| AdminHistory | Vanley Burke was commissioned to take photographs of local people and life in Liverpool by the Blackie Great Georges Community Cultural Project. The resulting exhibition was a solo exhibition. "The Blackie (Great Georges Community Cultural Project) is a community arts venue housed in a former Congregational Church, an architectural landmark in the heart of Liverpool’s Chinatown. It was established in 1968 as Britain’s first community arts project and hosts playgroups, community groups, and a cultural programme of arts workshops, youth projects, residencies, performances and exhibitions with the emphasis on cultural diversity and shared experience."
