FLAG wavers who gathered on Leigh Town Hall Square for a filming session, feature in a new exhibition at the Turnpike Gallery.

The large scale projection work of commissioned artists Emma Rushton and Derek Tyman show moments of the crowd scene and explores public spaces as settings for unfolding dramas.

The display includes hundreds of handmade flags and documentation of events in Leigh's history.

The exhibition opens on Saturday, February 1, and runs to March 22 and the artists speak about their work on February 15 at 2pm.
