Line-up Festival Donation
Suited and Booted would like to thank the lovely people at Line Up Festival for supporting Club Flix with their profit donation from this year's event.
Held earlier this spring Line Up Festival was an exciting one day film festival organised and run by a team of third year film students from Bath Spa University. Six feature films were screened across Bath at the Little Theatre, the Egg and Chapel Arts Centre, along with a short film competition.
The students involved were entirely responsible for all programming, marketing and fundraising for the event and we want to personally thank Ana Maria and the team for their hard work, and wish them great success with their future plans.
