HOLLYWOOD HOMELESS
05 March 2010
Hollywood is about image and perception, the roles that we play in life .... just like in a movie!
Urban Strawberry Lunch, working out of the ruins of St Luke’s Church have been working in collaboration with photography group Fab Collective and over 60 homeless people to produce original music and photographs forming the basis of this multimedia performance and exhibition.
Finding a voice through artistic expression can alter self image, inspiring self confidence and personal success. Becoming a producer rather than a consumer can provoke profound insights for anyone who dares to create. We hope you will come along and see what has been produced through the Hollywood Homeless project.
Press Launch: Friday 5th March 2010 from 4.00 pm. Performance at 5.00 pm
Exhibition and Performance (without projections): Saturday 6th March 12.00 to 4.00 pm
Exhibition and Multimedia Performance: Sunday 7th March 12.00 to 6.00 pm (multi media performance at 5.30 pm)
THIS EXHIBITION HAS BEEN EXTENDED. ADDITIONAL VIEWING DATES NOW INCLUDE 11TH, 12TH AND 13TH MARCH FROM 12.00 TIL 4.00 pm, WITH A PERFORMANCE ON FRIDAY 12TH AT 1.00pm. And who knows, we might even throw in an extra gig on 13th too!
HOLLYWOOD HOMELESS has been made possible with the support of the EMPLOYABLE COMMUNITIES FUND – an ESF funded scheme managed by: Community Foundation for Merseyside, Merseyside Expanding Horizons and Merseyside Disability Federation.
USL are supported by Arts Council England.
