New photo exhibition by Templehall young people and a chance to share your thoughts on the area

A new photo exhibition at the Argos Community Centre in Templehall, Kirkcaldy, will showcase the work of young local photographers.

The exhibition features photos of Templehall and its people and will open on 12 November at 6pm. It will then run between 5pm-8pm every Tuesday until 3 December.

Along with photographer, Ben Douglas, who is also a Project Officer with Youth Space Fife, Gordon Forbes, Fife Council’s Local Development Officer for the area, have been helping the young people with the project. Gordon said: “As many locals will know the Argos centre will close its doors for the final time at the end of the year. The young people wanted to put this exhibition together to show life from their perspective; how they see and view the area and the people. It’s also a great chance for the locals to get together to share stories and reminiscence about the centre which has been at the heart of the community for many years.”

As well, the exhibition, people will also be able to share their thoughts about life in Templehall which will help to shape future services and developments in the area. And on the opening night, there will also be an information event about the planning application for the new community hub, which will replace the Argos Centre.
