In partnership with the Heritage Fund, this project explored the impact of foreign food in West London. Five diffrent cuisines particpated in our event:
- AWELC (Eritrean)
- Diyarbakir (Turkish)
- JRK Kitchen (Caribbean)
- Soor (Lebanese)
- Tuti (Sudanese)
Oral history training for staff and volunteers conducted by Digital Works Limited Staff, Mathew Rosenberg and Sav. Ranging from different styles of interviewing techniques to the use of professional standard recording equipment.
The event took place at the Paddington Arts Centre, attendees were residents representing the vast and diverse community of West London. The visitors were delighted and the volunteers helped brig the community together.
Restaurant owners, staff and customers were interviewed, with the help of Digital Works the recordings were edited to produce a podcast to be deposited with Westminster Archives for the benefit of the community now in the future.
The photos were displayed in Paddington Library for two weeks from (4th - 17th) July. Displayed at the entrance for all to explore, showing all stages of the project.
