Was great to be invited down to the @WeAreLewisham Cultural Summit at the Albany to learn about new concepts and initiatives in Lewisham.
Very informative video presentation from Vicki Amedume Creative Director & CEO, about Lewisham’s Cultural Partnership and the Albany long history in Deptford.
Great words and leadership thoughts shared by our new Mayor Liam Shrivastava – People’s Day is coming 2027!
Banter, poetry and reminiscing from the amazing Cllr Rotimi Skyers – (Children, SEND, Youth Empowerment and Culture ) who had one of his first poetry performances on that very stage at The Albany.
Had an enthusiastic round table discussion where we had the opportunity to contribute to the conversation around Cultural Cohesion in Community.
Special love to Sakthi – Head of Culture & Community Development for the invite and very hilarious yet insightful group lead on our table that day; sticky notes galore!
Fun fact : REMEC FKA Reconcilers Children’s Club performed Midnight Stories “Chakpi Wo!” at The Albany mid 90s and again at People’s Day! Who’s looking forward to #PeoplesDay2027
Lots more exciting creative work in the loop this year! Keep an eye out for #PROJECTị at REMEC!
