Film Screenings: Bomb It & Bomb It 2 - Lick of Paint Fest

Take a front-row seat to the global graffiti movement with Kelham Film Club as they screen two acclaimed documentaries by director Jon Reiss:

• Bomb It (2007): A fascinating journey across five continents—New York, London, Tokyo, São Paulo, and more—exploring graffiti’s rise, clash with "quality of life" laws, and its claim to public space.
• Bomb It 2 (2010): A sequel diving deeper into previously unexplored street art hubs—from Bangkok and Jakarta to the West Bank and Melbourne—highlighting global artists and the diversity of graffiti culture.

Screening times:

• Session 1: 12:00 – 1:30 pm
  
  
• Session 2: 1:45 – 3:00 pm
  
  

Seats are limited to 40 per screening, with separate bookings required. This event is for ages 15+ only.

Enjoy the cozy, tucked-away setting of Alder Bar, one of the festival’s creative hubs—an ideal backdrop for this quieter, immersive experience.
