People, Pavements and Poverty: Perceptions of Homelessness

Event Location:

Newcastle Civic Centre

Date:

2016-12-09 10:30:00

A one-day symposium to consider why homelessness is still a major social issue 50 years on from the first showing of Cathy Come Home (1966). This symposium is the culmination of a highly ambitious, collaborative project, involving the renovation of empty properties in Newcastle by people who have experienced homelessness and the development of a series of artistic responses to these issues.

Includes a screening of Cathy Come Home.
