About this event

Film & Media • Other

This summer, we’ve been making a film about our local park, the archives, and finding joy. We’ll be sharing it for the first time on Friday 10th of October, and we’d love you to join us.

In many ways, this film is a celebration of Northwest London and the resilience of migrant communities that have shaped it from its beginnings. It’s also about the British Empire Exhibition of 1924-25 and that line which stretches all the way from then to today. It’s about Palestine, which sits along this colonial continuum, and it’s about a park full of dancing, BBQs, birthday parties, sport and beauty.

Please sign up via the link in our bio if you’d like to join us so we can get an idea of numbers for catering.
