Phoenix Archive Project

Dive into the Phoenix Archive Project as we explore this newly restored collection of historic film, brought to the big screen for the first time. From family life to major historical events and world travel, the collection offers an exciting glimpse into life in the first half of the 20th century.

Join Phoenix Archive Project manager, Luke Hagan, as he shows never before seen glimpses into the archive, and unveils the people, places and events behind this exciting collection of 16mm footage – uncovering what we know, what we’ve found out and what we’re still hoping to discover.

Phoenix Archive Project

This workshop is being run as part of the Phoenix Archive Project. The Phoenix Archive is a newly restored archive of 16mm film footage dating from the 1930s to the 1950s, tracking one family’s travels and activities through this turbulent period. From daily life and family outings to major historical events and world travel, the archive represents an exciting historical record.

The Phoenix Archive Project has been made possible thanks to support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and The Radcliffe Trust.
