A free artist-led festival is coming to south London next month.
WePresent, a celebration of creativity from the people behind WeTransfer, is taking over Peckham’s Copeland Gallery from May 8-10.
The three-day fest takes in panel talks from artists and directors, as well as showing work from the arts platform’s commissions and collaborations.
Centrepieces of the event include an exhibition called ‘On Belonging’, showcasing work ‘themed around belonging and identity’, and a library room featuring work like NOUR, a poetry book made in collaboration with the artist Mustafa. There’s also a cinema showing short films.
It should be a must-attend event for students and creative Londoners looking for inspiration and connection.
And because creativity is thirsty work, there’ll be complimentary cocktails from Peckham Social from 5-7pm each day. Sela Rose will be providing free brunch each morning and Happy Endings’ ice-cream sandwiches will be on offer too.
WePresent has helped cultivate the talents of filmmakers like Akinola Davies Jr. (My Father’s Shadow) and Amrou Al-Kadhi (Layla), and commissioned The Long Goodbye, an Oscar-winning short film starring and co-written by Riz Ahmed (below).
‘It’s outrageous to be mentioned alongside Moonlight’: Akinola Davies Jr on My Father’s Shadow.
The future of this beloved south London lido has been saved.
