The night will feature work that is socially and politically minded, and that has been created to educate and change. Les Monaghan is the first speaker. His ongoing project Relative Poverty is being created with families in Doncaster South Yorkshire who have been defined as destitute. Curtis James will also be speaking and the night is a collaboration between Miniclick and Curtis who is about to embark on a project documenting the lives of residents on three estates in East Brighton.
