We have invited the whole community to help build
the very first Sydenham Community poem. All we
asked was for anything connected with Sydenham:
personal, public, good, challenging.
Join us at Queensthorpe Square to hear the
poem for the first time being read aloud by its
contributors and some of our local poets.

Hear these two Forward Prize
winning poets
Kei Miller won the 2014 Forward Prize for his work
"The Cartographer Tries to Map a Way to Zion" which Hilary Mantel chose as one of her favourite
books of 2014. He "speaks and sings with rare
confidence and authority" (Lorna Goodison). Mona
Arshi has created a storm of appreciation with her
debut "Small Hands", winning the Forward Prize
for best first collection last year. A tender book
about the interplay of culture and the loss of a
family member.

Think David Copperfield meets Ben Stiller. Expect
serious facial expressions and 80's montage
music.
Hosted by Jody Kamali as the shambolic circus
entertainer ‘Fernando’, featuring emerging, daring
and exciting comedy performers from the London
circuit. Expect the unexpected. Line­up: The
Mayor Of Kentish Town aka Steve Furst (pictured),

THE GREAT WAR CLASSROOM
Experience what it would have been like to be a member of a school class
during a typical lesson in 1916
Presented by Sydenham Arts
As the UK commemorates the centenary of
the First World War, thanks to support by the
Heritage Lottery Fund, Sydenham Arts have been
researching one aspect of WW1 heritage which
has received relatively little attention: its effect
on the education experiences of teachers and
school children of the time.
Pulling together our research into the factual
histories of real teachers and school children
in South-East London, we invite you to an
immersive classroom experience with Dr. Charles
Maddock Stuart, a former headmaster of local
school St. Dunstan’s College.
As a “pupil” your formal lesson will be
approximately half an hour, followed by thirty
minutes of facilitated discussion in which
attendees may ask questions or offer their
thoughts on the classroom experience itself
and reflections on the Great War in general,
particularly how it impacted on children of school
age and their families.

FILM LOVERS 'SUMMERTIME'
JAZZ PICNIC
Open-air evening celebrating some of the finest film soundtracks of jazz,
performance, film, food and craft beers
Presented by Sydenham Arts and the
Sydenham Film Club
Following the success of last year's open-air film
screening of 'The Wizard of Oz' we invite you to
join us for an extra special evening celebrating
another film classic and the music that makes
films unforgettable!
Whilst blankets are laid, picnic baskets
are opened, and bottles are uncorked listen
to GEM's Performing Arts singing tracks from
'Bugsy Malone'.
Red Hot and Blue make a welcome return
to the stage with a programme of songs which
accompanied the early silent films to their
versions of numbers which are part of tonight’s
film 'Some Like It Hot', a film which revolves
around jazz including memorable songs still
played by bands today.
The jewel in the evenings crown will be
the joyous Billy Wilder comedy Some Like It
Hot featuring comedy legends Jack Lemmon
and Tony Curtis and the ever pouting Marilyn
Monroe.
Catering to your every need our partners
Beer Rebellion Sydenham and Brown & Green
Cafe will be adding a little extra to the Mayow
Park Bowling Green with pop up stalls sellling
delicious craft beers and scrumptious food to
suit grownups and kids alike!

SEE3 UPGRADING THE HIGH STREET
Get involved in the legacy of Portas Pilot funding
ALISON ROMANCZUK
Set up in 2012 to create a
vibrant high street in the
three neighbouring areas of
Sydenham, Forest Hill and
Kirkdale. Each high street
successfully attracted new
businesses, helping to ensure
long­term stability for SE23 &
SE26. The legacy for Sydenham
is a monthly market complete
with entertainment and the
development of the Sydenham
Hub. For Forest Hill there
is a project to enhance the
area around the library and
Louise House ­home to arts
organisation V22. Plans are
underway to develop the old
Laundry (to the rear) as a
community hub with exhibition
and events space, café and
garden. SEE3 is currently looking
for volunteers to get involved, if
you are interested contact us. n

on creative arts and well-being. Its
windows provide the perfect space
for a pop-up gallery for Sydenham's
artists. For up-to-date information
check sydenhamartists.co.uk
Tony’s pictures are based upon
sketchbooks completed during his
travels abroad and longer stays in
France. His pictures are freely painted
and give an essence of a place or
landscape using a variety of media.
Tony exhibits regularly with works in
collections in the UK and abroad.
Sheila works on the wheel, throwing
bowls as well as coiling and slab
work. Her work is influenced by
land and seascapes and organic
shapes and surfaces. She delights in
experimenting with a combination
of glazes and seeing the effects they
have on each other.
