SUMMARY:Star and Shadow: Rewinding the Welfare State: A Social History of the North East on Film
DESCRIPTION:Through local news reports\, Tyne Tees Television documentaries\, trade union campaigns\, community films and more\, this film show examines how the welfare state has impacted on the social development of our region from the 1920s to today. Audiences will be invited to share their thoughts as we explore how the journey ‘from cradle to grave’ – accessing healthcare\, housing\, education\, social security\, pensions\, and other human rights entitlements\, has changed over the years. \nIs there anything we can learn from the past to improve our future? \nMany of these films haven’t been seen since they were first made and are part of the extensive collections at North East Film Archive. \nTo book a seat please go to: https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/id/3906/ \nThis screening is brought to you by the North East Film Archive\, as part of their North East on Film project connecting the people and communities of the region with their film heritage\, in partnership with Teesside University. \nSupported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Teesside University.

SUMMARY:Tyneside Cinema. Fragile Labour: Archive Films and Live Discussion at the Tyneside Cinema
DESCRIPTION:From Tyneside Cinema: \nAs part of the Tyneside Cinema’s Zero Hour season inspired by the release of Ken Loach’s film Sorry We Missed You\, we explore the history of fragile labour and insecure work in Newcastle and the North East\, from cycles of casual work to the emergence of new forms of labour in the aftermath of industry. \nJoin us for a screening of a series of archive films from the North East Film Archive exploring various forms of insecure or disappearing forms of work in Newcastle and the North East\, including Tom Pickard’s 1987 film We Make Ships\, about the disappearance of the shipyards; Doing Our Bit\, which details unemployment relief efforts in 1930s Middlesbrough; and films detailing the end of the Consett Steelworks. \nAfterwards we will be joined by guests including Tom Pickard (filmmaker and poet)\, Dr Alison Atkinson-Phillips and Dr Andy King  (Oral History Unit\, Newcastle University)\, Dr Ben Lamb (Teesside University)\, and Ted Cuskin (former shipyard worker and social worker). The discussion will be moderated by Julie Ballands (North East Film Archive). \nIn the process this panel will explore the history of insecure work in Newcastle and the North East\, comparing these historic forms of fragile labour to the gig economy jobs of today. \nThis screening is brought to you in partnership with the North East Film Archive\, as part of the North East on Film project\, and is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. \nTo book go to https://tynesidecinema.co.uk/event/zero-hour-fragile-labour-a-north-east-history/ \n

SUMMARY:Mushroom Works\, Newcastle: Jane Smallcombe\, opening of her Art Studio
DESCRIPTION:From Bede Woods\, Secretary of Monkton Ward Labour Party in Jarrow. \nJane Smallcombe has supported the Monkton Ward and Jarrow CLP behind the scenes for several years. Lately\, she has helped both the CLP Woman’s Officer and the Fund Raiser in relation to our high profile speakers. She has herself personally created\, at very short notice\, an exceptional artwork for us and helped commission unique pieces of art for presentation gifts. \nThis amazingly talented artist\, who lives with us in the Monkton Ward\, put together a piece that took Baroness Shami Chakrabati’s breath away. Jane didn’t subsequently hog the limelight but instead introduced others from her art collective studios to share in having their creations presented to speakers such as Ken Loach\, Emily Thornberry and Ricky Tomlinson.  \nJoin us to support Jane Smallcombe \nSo when I heard about the annual 20/20 art exhibition http://www.mushroomworks.com/open-studios-2019 I thought we should return the favour by supporting Jane and her colleagues who have assisted our cause. A small group from our ward are going to meet outside the Mushroom Works in Newcastle at 6.00pm on Friday 22nd November. \nJane has only recently moved to a new space in this location. This is an opportunity to acquire original art from several local artists in person at a bargain price! It’s also a chance to lift our minds and spirits\, dress up and have a cultural injection. Hope you can come as well.
