The Charlton and Woolwich Free Film Festival is back in 2022 and we need you! We are having a public meeting on Thursday 17th March 2022 from 7pm to 9pm in the Prince Henry Room at Charlton House and anyone interested in finding out more about the film festival is encouraged to attend and welcome to become part of our pool of volunteers. Perhaps there’s a film you’d like to screen (we’ll help you!) or maybe you’d like to help set up the screen and the sound system. Or if you like social media and are keen to help us tell more people about the free films they can watch this September, come along.

When and where is the public meeting?

Charlton & Woolwich Free Film Festival – Public Meeting Date: Thursday 17th March 2022 Time: 7pm to 9pm Venue: Prince Henry Room at Charlton House (upstairs, there’s a lift and venue is wheelchair accessible). Since 2016 we’ve screened over 70 films including Black Panther, Dean Spanley, They Shall Not Grow Old, Yellow Submarine, Sisters With Transistors, One Cut of the Dead, Do The Right Thing and Free Solo in more than 20 venues including artFix, Tramshed, Charlton Assembly Rooms, St George’s Garrison Church, Royal Artillery Square, Shrewsbury House and quite a few pub gardens.
