WANSTEAD DAILY PHOTO: IT'S ALMOST THAT TIME OF YEAR...

....in just a few weeks as we slip into September there will be the amazing Wanstead Fringe and the equally amazing Wanstead Art Trail they both begin on September the 5th. There will be Kinema, see the picture below, readings, art in shops and offices in fact a whole extravaganza.... And of course at 'eightyfour' we will not be left out of the fun, there will be craft workshops and demo's, photography walks, a photography exhibition...phew, were do I get all the energy...

...and again this year - Homefront - check out the details below, it's a splendid chance for everyone to get involved...

Make your home
a work of art

Wanstead residents are invited to make their front gardens, or front windows, into works of art this summer. For the second year running, Bairstow Eves Lettings is sponsoring the HomeFront element of Art Trail Wanstead, and is offering a first prize worth £100 and two runner-up prizes worth £25.
This year's guide theme, We Are the Environment, lends itself to a green theme. But most importantly, individuals, couples, families, or even children on their own, should just enjoy making art over this summer, to embellish their home - and make our streets more interesting.
Work should remain on show at least from 5th-20th September.

There is no fee, and you will be able to post us photos of your entry. To get involved go to www.artgroupwanstead.com

Extra info:

Last year, bendy characters - made by Leading Our Lives children - popped up all over Wanstead, while the Over The Top sandbag installation, recalling WWI, stopped Redbridge Lane West passersby in their tracks. But whether you enjoy birdhouse building or pebble mosaic, or are happy to show some of your own artwork in your windows, do take part.
