We’re proud to announce a new collaboration between Black at Sussex and Mid Street Labs, marking a significant step forward in our mission to amplify Black voices, talent and histories.
Together, we’ve supported a successful funding application for a powerful new project that explores the intersections of creativity, memory and cultural heritage. This initiative will centre Black lived experiences through digital storytelling and visual archiving - bringing to life untold stories from across the Black Sussex community and beyond.
Mid Street Labs brings a unique, future-facing approach to digital arts and production, and this partnership opens exciting opportunities for students, alumni and creatives to shape how Black stories are captured, curated and shared - now and into the future.
For details on how you can engage with the project, including public events and student involvement please email info@midstreetlab.com
This is just the beginning. Let’s build together.
