Sorting through thousands of his photographs, Northampton resident and internationally known photographer Paul Shoul has chosen sixty portraits in memory of the local artists, activists, musicians, politicians, and entrepreneurs who played a role in Northampton’s revitalization in the 1980s and 1990s. Shoul will narrate this special slideshow and be on-hand for conversation.
The images will be projected onto the front of Historic Northampton's Parsons House and run on a continuous loop.
