MARKET Community Celebration / We Are Wednesbury Cultural Programme / Multistory

A film documenting the activities of MARKET, a free community event featuring live music, poetry, creative workshops that took place at Wednesbury Market Place in March 2022.
Passersby were invited to create painted fabric pieces inspired by the stories and memories of Wednesbury with artists Hipkiss & Graney, and to view the installation of pieces created by local residents over the last month in a series of creative storytelling workshops.
There were also short poetry performances and live music from Kate Luxemoore band and the Blue Sky Brass band, and cakes were provided by the wonderful local Harry Potter cafe Platform 9 3/4. The event was hosted as part of the Wednesbury High Street Heritage Action Zone cultural programme, funded by Historic England and Sandwell Council.
This film was created by Birmingham based Michael Ellis Films.
