What we are looking for are interesting, unusual, innovative, entertaining, thought provoking shorts that are no longer than 10 minutes in length.
These films can be from any genre: drama, documentary, musical, animation, the possibilities are endless. The only limit is your creativity.

Are you eligible?
To be able to enter the showcase, all we ask is that you have a link to the Sherwood area in Nottingham.

Email received from Paul Baker that may be of interest:

Hi All

I hope you don't mind me invading your inbox but I just want to take a moment of your time to let you know about a great new temporary exhibition currently on display in the Rainbow Gallery at Durban House Heritage Centre entitled Architecture.
Textile group InSPIREation21 presents a new collection of work, which is inspired by the form and shapes within architecture and uses both contemporary and traditional stitch work.
I hope many of you can find time to visit. I appreciate some of you are not local to the area but I would be grateful if you might promote this to any friends who might be interested. The exhibition continues until 20th December.

More information can be found on the website

Also those of you who were kind enough to support the Centre from the recent threat of closure might be interested to know that (what we believe to be) a final decision regarding its future will be taking place later this month. So far as I know the future of the DH Lawrence Birthplace Museum is secure.

Kind regards
Paul
