From the distant past to the present day, ordinary people have come together and taken action to create better lives for their communities and for the wider world.

Join us to look into 'Wor Story' - films, exhibits and workshops exploring just a few of the many inspiring stories, amazing events and successes in the struggle against exploitation and inequality.

With films, discussions and exhibitions on equal pay, the poll tax, miner's strike and more...

Plus footage from protests, actions and other struggles for social change in Newcastle's recent and not so recent past, and a selection from Archive for Change - films of home, place and change from Newcastle's West End.

Info stalls, workshops and discussions on past campaigns, current (and future?) campaigns, Canny Little Library and infoshop.

And the launch of Wor Diary 2012, Newcastle's own participatory rebellious diary!

Daytime events free (cinema membership £1)
