00:01Southport's creativity takes centre stage this summer as over 400 young artists from across the north-west are celebrating in a spectacular new art installation.
00:11There's something good about Southport.
00:13Running until Sunday 14th September, this huge free outdoor exhibition transforms the approach to Adventure Coast Southport into a vibrant open-air gallery.
00:22The artworks have been framed with each child's name proudly displayed on a gold plaque and lines the route to the park in an immersive visual journey of joy, pride and imagination.
00:33Created by children and young people aged 3 to 18 from across the north-west including Manchester, Wigan and of course Southport itself, the artworks reflect personal responses to one question, what's good about Southport?
00:47From sunny seafronts and scenic parks to family, friendship and community spirit, the results are as heartwarming as they are impressive, offering a glimpse of the town through the hopeful eyes of its youngest generation.
00:59And with contributions from local schools and families further afield, the projects captured imaginations far and wide.
01:06The presentation stretches over nearly 100 metres, transforming everyday spaces into an exhibition for all to enjoy.
01:15Three winning artworks will be reproduced in large-scale permanent format and displayed in a prominent location before being gifted back to the young artists later in the year.
01:24Organisers say it's joyful, emotional, inspirational and showcases what makes the town so special.
01:30This is Southport through the eyes of its future.
01:33It's a bold celebration of young voices, creativity and community pride.
