A BLIND art enthusiast’s experience at an art exhibition has been turned into a documentary.
Boltonian Christine Gregory lost her sight because of a retinal condition, but she found a new lease of life when she joined a group which helps people enjoy art using audio descriptions.
Now Christine and the group, Henshaws Art Galleries and Museums, are featuring in a documentary about it. She and two other blind people were filmed as they visited the Chinese Arts Centre in Manchester. Seeing Beyond is on show at the centre from January 23 to April 5.
