There are just a few days left to see the Capturing the East Riding photography exhibition before its tour of the East Riding ends. A selection of 60 photographs from the original Capturing the East Riding exhibition will be on display at Goole Museum until Saturday, 3 November. This is the last opportunity to see these remarkable photos which capture the uniqueness and diversity of the East Riding. The works selected for the Goole exhibition include, but are not limited to, all those photos from the original exhibition that were taken by local photographers or that depict the town and surrounding area. There is a fascinating array of images, including scenes of Goole life and popular sporting events to stunning sunsets and meditations on our amazing flora and fauna. Councillor Richard Burton, cabinet portfolio holder for civic wellbeing and culture at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “The council has been very encouraged by the warm response to this exhibition across the East Riding. The photos represent a year in the life of the East Riding, from the severe winter of 2010/11 to those annual cultural events that bring fun and entertainment to our residents and visitors.

A selection of photographs from the Capturing the East Riding exhibition will be on view for the last time at Goole Museum, from Tuesday, 9 October until Saturday, 3 November. The Capturing the East Riding photography exhibition has been touring the East Riding since February, delighting audiences in Beverley, Bridlington and Pocklington. The last stop on the tour is Goole Museum, where 60 of the winning photos will go on display for local residents to enjoy. The selected works include, but are not limited to, all those photos from the original exhibition that were taken by Goole photographers or that depict the Goole area. Janet Tierney, Goole Museum curator, said: “Because of the limited space at Goole Museum, we have had to reduce the overall number of prints to be shown here, but we are thrilled to have the opportunity to display all the stunning images taken in and around Goole by our talented local photographers which were included in the original exhibition at Beverley.” Councillor Richard Burton, cabinet portfolio holder for civic wellbeing and culture at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “The photographs reflect both the uniqueness and diversity of the East Riding, as well as the character…
The summer of 2012 is turning out to be an exciting time for residents and visitors across the East Riding. In particular, communities have been marking the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the passage of the Olympic Torch Relay through the area. The Diamond Jubilee was celebrated with a great variety of local events, including street parties, barbecues, regattas, pageants and concerts, which saw towns and villages buzzing. Many of these activities were organised by local volunteers and were occasions for family fun and showing off community pride. Just two weeks after the Jubilee weekend, the Olympic Torch was carried through Bridlington, Beverley, Brough and Goole. Tens of thousands of people lined the four routes to cheer the torch bearers on and was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for local people to be part of this global phenomenon. With these festivities taking place, the council has been running a photography competition to capture pride and Olympic spirit that has been on display during this ‘Summer of Celebration’. This contest draws on the success of the Capturing the East Riding photography competition and should create a fascinating visual record of how 2012 was marked in the East Riding. Open to all amateur photographers, the…
