Launch event 1
FRIDAY 29th OCTOBER
7.00PM - 2.00AM
Free Admission before 11pm / £5 After

Do come and drop in to this celebration of the launch of the CLF Art Cafe, over 3 years of Bussey Building CLF Events and the Official Launch of one of London's leading cutting edge venues.

Come early between 7pm and 9pm when music will be low and background, suitable for hearing each other! So come also and mark the success of Peckham Vision's work to lift our spirits and our sights to what Peckham could become. Just last Saturday the CLF Art Cafe hosted the Peckham Town Centre Forum again and an enthusiastic meeting of people working together across a variety of interests for the future of Peckham. See http://www.peckhamvision.org/wiki/Peckham_Town_Centre_Forum

As many of you know we first started publicising events in the Bussey building in 2005 when we stumbled on the plan to demolish it and the adjacent 7 acre site for the tram depot. Fortunately TfL finally saw sense and concluded that it was the wrong thing to do for this key part of the town centre, and discovered it wasn't the right place for the tram depot anyway (see the report here http://www.peckhamvision.org/wiki/Visions_for_Peckham#Latest_News ).

Over these last few years the Bussey building has revealed its significant potential as part of the burgeoning cultural world in Peckham. You can get a taste of some of this at the celebration this coming Friday and Saturday events in the Bussey building itself at the official launch of the CLF Art Cafe.

The CLF Art Cafe, developed by Mickey Smith, has been the host of many Peckham Vision events over the last few years, and other community events, and now has the permissions it needs to open full time:

Peckham town centre revitalisation

News from Peckham Vision

The Peckham Town Centre Forum has evolved from the work of Peckham Vision and the Rye Lane & Station Action Group. It is bringing together anyone who is enthusiastic and wants to contribute to new thinking and actions to revitalise the town centre.

If you would you like to get actively involved in this work, please email info@peckhamvision.org, so we can link you in.

The Forum's next meeting is on Saturday 23rd October. We will be having a walkabout in the town centre in the morning to work on ideas for improving the street scene, think about the large development sites, and in the afternoon at the meeting discussing those and several other topical issues.

You can see some of the activity, that has led up to this, on the website at
