Apna Heritage Archive at Tiranga 2016

September 12, 2016 in Apna Heritage Archive

BCVA attended Jaivant Patel Dance's Tiranga 2016 event at the heart of the community in Blakenhall Wolverhampton. It was a great opportunity to promote the Apna Heritage Archive to our target audience and participants. We had a positive response from the local community and met many new participants for the archive project.

Sarvjit and Avtar make a connection with c.1969 photograph

One photograph makes a great connection with the past. Sarvjit Sra pictured above with Avtar Cheema with a photograph taken in Newport Street c.1969. Avtar lived in Newport St in the 80's and Sarvjit's relatives lived in the same house in the 70's. It's a small world! 

BCVA would like to thank Jaivant Patel and all the staff at Tiranga 2016 for their support.
