From the GLA
The
Deputy Mayor for Culture and Creative Industries, Justine Simons,
has today announced changes to the London Borough of Culture programme
in response to the impact of coronavirus.
Brent
2020 is rescheduling its programme until later in 2020, with the
Kilburn High Street Party and Liberty Festival, the Mayor of London’s
free festival celebrating of the work of Deaf and disabled artists,
happening in the summer of 2021. Lewisham’s year as London Borough of
Culture will move to 2022. Croydon will remain London Borough of Culture
for 2023.
Justine Simons said:
It’s important that we all follow the Government’s instructions to stay at home unless it is essential to leave. But we do not want Londoners to miss out on the amazing creative programmes that Brent, Lewisham and Croydon have planned, so that is why we have re-scheduled our plans. We will work closely with artists, the boroughs and all those involved to ensure they are supported during these challenging times.
