What a thrill to win this model of the School of Art Wolverhampton, made by @spaceplaystudio. Last Dec, the Uni of Wolverhampton @wlv_uni invited people to share a memory of the building. My 'Lock In' experience in 1992 is now on the SW blog: stillwalking.org/blog/2023/3…

🎞️We'll be taking an action-packed stroll through Birmingham's cinema history on Sat 2 July🎞️
While some city-centre picturehouses have vanished altogether, some are hiding as shopping arcades or shisha lounges and a couple are still actual cinemas!

Just 2 x tix remain for the Royal Road walk on Sat 4 June in Droitwich Spa as part of their all-day Jubilee celebrations. In search of the regal and the majestic, somewhere between keen historical survey, pop-cultural inquiry and affectionate satire. FREE! eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-royal…
