Information - Documenting the Caribbean Club: Then & Now

John Ferguson + Tony Powlett – Part of The ICA Project

The Ipswich Caribbean Association building (ICA) on Woodbridge Road was a busy community centre and social club between the early 1970s and 2010. The ICA Project revisits the building (which was demolished in 2012) through specially commissioned photography, newly collected oral histories, and archival materials made public for the first time.

For this special evening event, join photographer John Ferguson, creator of the ICA Memories photographic commission, and Tony Powlett, an avid documenter of the Caribbean Club, in conversation with SPILL Artistic Director Robin Deacon.

Together, they will share their knowledge and recollections of the ICA’s activities and communities, and their respective experiences documenting its vibrant history.
