A traditional trade is a long-established way of conducting business, a living connection with our past. This community-driven exhibition will showcase five traditional trades from the viewpoint of the tradespeople, the inter-personal relationship that each trade fosters, and how technology as an immersive tool can help to bridge our past, present & future.
