ABOUT Brixton Community Cinema

Brixton Community Cinema is a pop-up cinema, intended to bring affordable international and independent film to a community who face uneven access to arts institutions. The cinema screens a range of films across genre and format which foreground subaltern voices and experiences and showcase the breadth of experimental approaches to using film as a medium of expression and protest.

The BCC aims to explore ways to minimise both the financial and non-financial barriers to cinema-going.

ABOUT GARDEN OF AFRUIKA

GOA was birthed out of a desire to re-establish the importance of food and community. GOA is fully plant based and they run restaurant pop-ups, as well as a free community cooking club.
 

“Our ultimate goal for GOA is to have a physical, multi-purpose space which welcomes in our community to celebrate, reflect on and push forward different aspects of our culture – with food always being at the centre”. 

“Food – more specifically sub saharan African/ Caribbean foods are my passion. I see food through a pan-African lens and recognise the similarities, as well as the differences in foods across the African diaspora. Growing up in a household where my dinner could consist of nkatenkwan with  rice & peas, I have always been privy to the cohesiveness of our foods and this is what I have always had the desire to highlight.”
– Eyram, founder of GOA
