book market & fun Fri-Sun 24-26 June in Copeland Cultural Quarter & Bussey Building

The Copeland Cultural Quarter stirs into more organic growth this coming weekend. Son Gallery are hosting a whole weekend of art, music and food as they launch their first Copeland Book Market from Friday to Sunday. See details below. This is an exciting demonstration of the potential that Peckham Vision first drew attention to in calling the site, once designated for demolition (see http://www.peckhamvision.org/wiki/images/2/21/,
SE15_article.pdf) the Copeland Cultural Quarter.

The weekend complements the Peckham Society’s Sketch Peckham! celebration of the new annual national Civic Day on Saturday 25 June 2-6pm in Peckham Town Square. See here for reminder of those details: https://peckhamresidents.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/399/
