This tin of coffee was a gift from Ethiopia to Great Yarmouth

Whilst doing the Big Draw workshops over the weekend at the Time and Tide museum on saturday this exhibit caught my eye. The inscription reads:

"This tin of coffee was a gift from Haile Selassie, the Emperor of Ethiopia, on 31st January 1953. It was one of a batch distrubuted to victims of the East Coast Floods."

As today is the 31st is the last day of Black History month this year it's apt to include it.

These are not jam tarts but as enjoyable never the less.

I'm among artists participating in the Big Draw event at the Time and Tide Museum. The work is under the theme of a "Tide Line" which I am turning into a short film piece.
