Jubilee Pool Stories

Heritage/Arts/Media Project

Completed (2020)

Jump in! 'Jubilee Pool Stories' has been an intergenerational, community-focused, 3-year heritage project to collate, digitise, interpret and share a rich cultural archive.

awen productions and artist Dr Jane Bailey partnered with Jubilee Pool Penzance, Falmouth University, Penwith College and The Lux London to deliver exciting audio/visual activities for our local community and schools.

Jubilee Pool is the UK's largest surviving open air, tidal swimming pool and is situated in Penzance, Cornwall. Much loved since it opened in 1935, the striking Grade II listed lido stirs vivid memories for a wide cross-section of people and represents a wealth of unrecorded and un-interpreted social and community history.
