Greetings,

As some of you may know that over the last 3 years, the V&A and Gabriel
Media International have been working together on various events that
have looked at aspects of British Caribbean heritage and history,
through practical workshops, screenings and displays.  

This year the Caribbean UK Film Festival 2011, hosted by actor Geff
Frances and Charles Thompson MBE founder of the Screen Nation Awards,
will explore the themes of fashion, music, sport and culture with a
special feature honouring the lifetime achievements of actor Earl
Cameron CBE - not to be missed!

You are encouraged to come dressed in your own style of 60s chic and /
or bring along copies of photographs of yourself, friends and family,
album covers, magazines and other related memorabilia, that illustrate
contributions within the arts, music, performance, the public services
and more and share these on the 1960s Memorabilia Wall. 

Please find attached the Film Festival flyer and the Film Festival
Programme - enjoy, it's all an education!
