ROOTS 40+ PROGRAMME

ROOTS 40+ programme provides insight into the stories of Black artists who have made a significant contribution to the UK cultural sector by practicing their art forms for more than 40 years!

These have been documented in a series of online interviews, featuring artists based in London, Bristol, Birmingham and Liverpool, with intention showing the significant impact their work has made on the UK cultural landscape.

A ROOTS 40+ campaign has started to raise funds to produce a documentary film of the journeys of Black artists, the unsung heroes in the sector, who have been practising (and in some cases still practising) since the 70’s.

You can view some of these stories in the playlist below:
