The blurb from the press release says:

Soul City Arts welcomes acclaimed author, Na’ima B. Robert, to the city of Birmingham for the first time. She will be launching her controversial new novel about Zimbabwe’s land reform programme, ‘Far From Home’, exclusively at The Hubb.

In addition to discussing some of the original ideas behind her new book, Nai’ma B. Robert will be speaking about her inspiration as a writer and her journey to becoming a published author at Birmingham’s exciting Hubb Arts centre in Sparkbrook, Birmingham.

Following the one-off live event back in January before part of the Birmingham Repertory Theatre was demolished, Soul City Arts in association with mac and The REP presents Mohammed Ali’s Writing On The Wall – The Documentary.

Taking place 3 September, 4-7pm at the mac, the event will screen the documentary, plus live performances and a Q&A session with Writing On The Wall artists: Mohammed Ali, Zena Edwards, Amir Sulaiman, Dreadlock Alien and Jonzi-D.

Pete Ashton will also be on hand, chairing a panel discussion on the topic of ‘Creative collaboration – the way forward for cross-cultural arts and public engagement in B’ham?’

Take a peek at the documentary trailer, which we posted up a few weeks ago.

Tickets can be booked at www.macarts.co.uk, and are £5 / £3 concessions. This also gives you entry to a bonus event the following day: In Conversation with Amir Sulaiman & Performance, at The Hubb.
