Birthday by Sam Winston: 12 hours of life and death

As part of Death: Southbank Centre’s Festival for the Living, Sam Winston is creating a pop up registry office in Royal Festival Hall as part of his Birthday project, commemorating the quarter of a million lives that are born and die in the space of 12 hours around the world.

Come along to join in with the project – draw circles with Sam to remember and celebrate your loved ones and register their names in writing.

Here’s a video following Sam’s journey from the conception of the project through to its creation and to thinking about the next step, part of which is happening at Southbank Centre next weekend…

Birthday is at Southbank Centre from Friday 27 – Sunday 29 January. Come along and draw a circle…
