Get matched →Join the North West Film Archive SUBTEXT artist Parham Ghalamdar for two interactive workshops about the meaning of an archive collection. You’ll get a chance to learn about archives, develop your own temporary library of objects, and contribute to a hand-drawn film from the sessions.
These sessions are aimed at young people between the ages of 11-25 as part of the North West Film Archive's 'Amplifying Youth Voices in Screen Heritage' BFI funded project. Any young people between the ages of 11-25 are welcome to join us, get creative and learn more about what archives are.
Please bring your own item that has importance to you. This can be anything - a toy, book or trinket. This object could be part of your own collection of things, or just something that represents your interests.
The main workshop sessions will take place in our Stockroom Studios on the 1st floor. Head up the big red staircase, or use one of our two lifts to the first floor and head round to the wooden double doors which lead into our event spaces.
Stockroom is a fully wheelchair accessible venue with lifts between the two floors as well as stairs. There is step-free access to the living room where Learn A Skill / Share A Skill takes place, and there are public toilets in Adlington Walk with accessible toilets, a Changing Places toilet, all-gender toilet and baby changing facilities in both single sex blocks, as well as an additional separate parent and child room with baby changing facilities. On the first floor of Stockroom, there are additional all gender individual fully contained toilet cubicles.
