Retrospective
Continuing at The Gallery , Winchester Discovery Centre until November 10 , A Life Behind the Lens : Paul Joyce features some of the most famous and instantly recognisable faces of 20th and 21st century culture , images which engage the viewer directly or appear to gaze distractedly elsewhere . Hampshire Cultural Trust ’ s retrospective of the internationally renowned photographer , Paul Joyce , takes place in the year of his 80th birthday . Celebrated for his painterly eye , Winchester-born Joyce often chose formal or classic poses for his subjects , many of whom are icons of film , art , music , theatre and photography .

Bonfire night
Winchester Round Table has launched Light Up Winchester 2 – The Bright Night . The charity group seeks to raise more £ 30,000 for the local community , especially since Covid has hit income generation . Multi-site fireworks ’ displays will offer views of the city on November 6 , at 7pm , and a wax torch parade has been organised to bring the community together and brighten the streets . The Bright Night is the encore to last year ’ s record setting event which comprised a multisite synchronised display , live streamed by drones . Residents and bonfire supporters are invited to make a donation in lieu of the usual cost of their bonfire ticket ; all proceeds go directly to supporting local groups and charities for the following 12 months .
