Hosted by The Unofficial Stretford Museum, Common Arts brings a Gala Listening Evening
"Sounds Like Stretford is an audio storytelling project capturing real voices and memories connected to Stretford.
The recordings will form part of a growing audio archive forTthe Unofficial Stretford Museum, celebrating the people, places, and everyday moments that shape the town.
From March 10th, a small recording space will open where local people can come and share short stories about their connection to Stretford. These “snapshot” recordings capture memories, reflections, or small moments connected to life in the town.
Alongside these, a number of longer personal stories will be recorded with selected contributors, helping to build a living audio portrait of Stretford.
The project will culminate in a Gala Listening Evening on 21 March (7pm–9pm) where audiences will be invited to hear the main recorded stories for the first time and celebrate the voices that make up the town.
