Lambeth Heritage Festival, September 2017
Sponsored this year by the Walcot Foundation and taking place throughout the month of September, this is the Festival’s fifth year.

One of the key things that the Festival does is to open up the history of Lambeth’s people and places and to make them relevant and interesting for residents and visitors. Lambeth Archives has worked with the Lambeth Local History Forum to put together such a rich and innovative programme with the help of the Walcot Foundation.

This year there are talks, films, music, theatre, exhibitions, walks and workshops covering a whole spread of interests and from just about every geographical perspective: everything from William Blake’s Lambeth to the Front Line.

For more details - including the official Programme - check out the brochure.
