Fareham at 50 photo exhibition unveiled

As part of Fareham’s 50th anniversary celebrations, Fareham Borough Council has worked with a local artist to create the ‘Fareham at 50’ exhibition in the town centre.

Artist, Innes Marlow, was joined by Fareham Borough councillors yesterday evening for the official unveiling of his unique photography exhibition, which features local people from across all backgrounds and age groups. It is designed to provide a snapshot of Fareham at 50 and the people who make this Borough the vibrant and interesting place that it is.

In order to make this exhibition accessible to all, the artwork has been installed as striking window and wall vinyl displayed in three locations within Fareham Shopping Centre.

Innes commented: “Fareham in 2024 is thriving and diverse and I wanted to mark this milestone by capturing a unique snapshot of the Borough - not just the place, but the people who make Fareham a unique hub of modern technology, who recognise the past, celebrate the present and look forward to the future. I am very proud to display this artwork in the heart of my hometown and hope everyone enjoys visiting the exhibition.”

Executive Leader at Fareham Borough Council, Cllr Simon Martin added: “I am delighted with the Fareham at 50 exhibition. The photography is stunning and the fact that all of the subjects have such an affinity with the Borough is wonderful. I encourage people to come to Fareham town centre to see if they can spot anyone they know or just to admire this fascinating artwork.”
