I went to the Four Corners Gallery in Bethnal Green to listen to the talk "Half Moon Photography Workshop: the inside story."
The speakers included Mike Goldwater, Ron McCormick, Jennie Matthews and Paul Trevor.
And nice to see Ed Barber remembered on the poster outside. A very interesting story. I never did visit the original Half Moon Gallery but did buy Camerawork magazine for a while.
