Event Description

Come for an afternoon of dressing up, performance and filming. We're looking to capture Sutton residents telling real stories and sharing special memories for an exciting project to create a collective memory for our community and a celebration of our individuality. Refreshments will be provided.

Come dressed in an outfit that you would wear to a celebration and be ready to be filmed for the moving image project. It may be a traditional garment, the costume of a story character, or your favourite party attire. Alternatively, guests are welcome to bring an object or a photograph that signifies a special moment in their life. We'd love for you to share the story behind it.
