Intra Stories - Digital Artist Commissions, Electric Medway

About - Throughout 2025, https://www.electricmedway.org/intrastories.html - Intra Stories has been working with young people to uncover new stories about the entertainment history of The Old High Street Intra, a space between Chatham and Rochester. From the lively theatres and cinemas to the rich music, punk and LGBTQ+ scenes, what our young Digital Archivists captured has been placed into a new online archive. This will inform the making of the commissioned interactive hoardings and 'zine.
