Congratulations to 100 Community Members!

FreqOUT! celebrated this month the achievements of over 100 community members on its Interactivity project. 36 participants between 16 - 82 took part intensively on the project across Westminster, from Church Street, Queens Park and Pimlico. They produced films, digital photographs and sounds to investigate the history of their local area. The project ran in partnership with Westminster City Archives where the groups researched material to digitse for their projects. You can view the final online work here.....
