Deptford Art Tour this Saturday!!! 7 November

It might be a little late in the week, but the Deptford Art Map (DAM) are running a walking art tour this Saturday (7th November), from 2-5 pm.

This will be traveling off the beaten track....to some new spaces in places you might not have ventured before! Perfect before wandering up to the famous Blackheath fireworks in the evening (after a quick drink I am sure).

Free tea and home-made cake, at £9.50 good value also. Meet outside New Cross Station at 2pm (not New X Gate)

Booking online is essential, go to http://www.deptfordartmapcom Spaces still available but be quick, not many!!

Testimonies from the last tour:

‘Thank you so much for the wonderful tour. My classmates and I found it very relevant to our research. It was helpful not only to see how buildings and vacant lots in the neighbourhood have been re-appropriated by local artists.’ Jenny Trumble

‘The tour was great and the guide – marvellous. I really do think there is lots of potential to expose both Londoners and visitors to the happenings in Deptford. Kevin Caruth

Its quite a long and very interesting piece including the new Gallop ice cream parlour, BEARSPACE and CT Pocket art book boutique, Arch Gallery and Arch Materials as well as APT.

Also, stop press!!! The first Deptford Art Tour takes place this Saturday October 3rd, from 2-5 pm.
