Cultural Festivals

Add contents hereSince August 2008 London has been hosting the international Cultural Olympiad which will run to 2012 and South London will continue to play a full and active part in the Cultural Olympiad. There will be a range of activities and events at national and regional level, boroughs and local organisations are also planning their own activities.

By 2013 we will have involved more than half of south Londoners in culture and arts activities leaving a lasting legacy of participation, enhanced audiences, successful artists and a celebration of south London’s diversity.

The projects and activities related to this work may encompass visual and performing arts, heritage and museums, the built environment and open space, libraries and literature, new media, film, food and celebrations. www.gosouthgo.co.uk/events

The Handover of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games on August 24th and September 17th provided milestone opportunities for community engagements, supporting and localising the opportunities for cultural activity created as a result of London 2012.

South London’s Cultural Festival – See Something, Hear Something, Taste Something – was a six-week long festival with activities across all seven Boroughs.

• Over 30,000 people directly engaged, many of these children taking the message home to their families.
• Thousands of very excited children!
• Excellent small event coverage encouraging grass roots interest.
• A solid foundation to build on in the years leading up to 2012.
