Our Events
|
We host a range of cultural events in Islington that share vital perspectives and ideas, which are typically unheard or underrepresented in the mainstream. From 2010 - 2015 we delivered Islington's official Black History Month Festival, an incredibly popular programme of film screenings and community events, which were attended by thousands of people (see below). Since launching our All World History All Year Round campaign in 2015, we've been working to offer a year-round events programme of diverse and thought provoking art, history, literature, music and food, connecting people from all backgrounds, across London. The programme is inspired by the radicalism and positivity of our BHM festivals. Examples of these events include a screening of the political documentary The Supreme Price, at King's Place; a book launch with award-winning author Anjan Sundaram at Housman's Bookshop and summer party of poetry, music and discussion with award-winning poet and political commentator Anthony Anaxagorou at the amazing Global Generation's Skip Garden in King's Cross. We are currently fundraising to continue to offer these important cultural events in Islington.
