Picturing High Streets tells the stories behind our shopfronts. It celebrates our high street heroes, captures familiar scenes and invites audiences to consider the value and role of their local high street.

The winning 65 photographs have been crowdsourced from over 1,000 public entries and will tour towns and cities across England from today, 22 March. The images will be shown alongside works by resident artists in ten locations around England, meaning that the exhibition will change to reflect each location it appears in.

This major national outdoor exhibition kicks off in London in the form of projections every day at dusk in Soho Photography Quarter, on the doorstep of The Photographers' Gallery (22-29 March), Derby as part of FORMAT23 photography festival (16 March – 9 April), Bristol (22 March – 1 May), Hastings (22 March – 23 April), Middlesbrough (22 March – May) and Prescot (22 March – 23 April). The exhibition will then travel to Norwich, Bradford and Stoke-on-Trent.

The exhibition is part of a three-year project by Historic England and Photoworks, in partnership with national and regional photography organisations, to create a contemporary portrait of England’s high streets.
