A event held at Bristol Beacon on Saturday 18th March. The event starts at 10:00.
Grime Stories: from the corner to the mainstream was a landmark display at the Museum of London, running June-December 2022. Co-curated by one of Grime’s early documentarians Roony ‘RiskyRoadz’ Keefe and featuring Grime pioneer Jammer, it explored the music, people and places central to the Grime scene and its roots in east London.
The display featured a series of newly commissioned films that explore the community at the heart of grime’s success, a large-scale illustration from artist Willkay and personal artefacts from the heart of the grime scene.
As part of CrossTalk in collaboration with NOODS LEVELS, we have been granted exclusive permission by the Museum of London to host the exhibition and on Sat 18 Mar there will be a Q&A with Risky Roadz himself, alongside the exhibition’s producer Dhelia Snoussi (Museum of London) and hosted by Tom Koast (Durkle Disco, SWU FM).
Following this, the exhibition will be free to the public during Bristol Beacon’s opening hours (10am-4pm) for one week ending on Sat 25 Mar.
