On Sunday 21 July, we are joining Birmingham’s annual Arts and Reggae Festival as part of BCLM’s Community Roadshow.
Rooted in north Birmingham, Simmer Down Festival is a free family festival located in the beautiful surroundings of Handsworth Park. The festival celebrates Birmingham’s rich cultural diversity by paying tribute to reggae and other musical genres that have contributed to Birmingham as an international City of culture.
Our team will join the Black Country Players and Historical Characters in sharing skills and collecting real stories from real people across the Black Country. Our particular focus this week is linked to JH Lavender’s Aluminium Foundry and Black Country industries.
Check out our twitter page as we share stories from local people and images throughout the day.
