UNESCO CREATIVE CITIES OF NASSAU & BRADFORD COLLABORATE IN SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO SIR SIDNEY POITIER
Creative Nassau was so very proud to be a part of a collaborative event this February with the City of Bradford, our sister UNESCO Creative City of Film!
Bradford's Director, David Wilson, reached out to us to send remarks from The Bahamas on the occasion of their special screening of the film 'In the Heat of The Night' at the historic Clayton Community Cinema on Sunday, February 20 in tribute to our own Sir Sidney Poitier who passed away on January 6th and would have celebrated his 95th birthday on their screening day.
The event was also promoted in the local U.K. Telegraph and Argus newspaper article https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/19925324.sidney-poitiers-daughter-sends-video-message-clayton-community-cinema/ and as Wilson so aptly stated, it shows the power of the Arts, in this instance the medium of Film, to inspire and unite people all around the world!
