Manchester Craftsmen’s Guild has been marking the 20th anniversary of its Metropolitan Street, North Side, facility with a series of events and exhibitions that feature artists who have lectured, exhibited and conducted workshops there. Two artists from the current exhibition, photographers Linda Connor and Lonnie Graham, will give a free public lecture at 6 p.m. tomorrow at the Guild.
