Join Udochi from NAZ Project London on 30th June for our next meeting of the Front to Black book group! This month, we're discussing The Seers by Sulaiman Addonia. It's short, it's thought-provoking, and you can pick up your copy from Sydenham Library. See you there!

You can find dual lanuage books for kids at your local library - both ones to borrow and ones to take home for free, provided by www.booktrust.org.uk If you can't find a book in your own language ask for help from a member of staff.

Need a space for a meeting, class, or one-off hire? Our community studios are available across Sydenham, Manor House, Forest Hill, and Crofton Park libraries. Studio hire helps keep our community-run libraries open, as they rely entirely on funding and rentals. buff.ly/RewSNz3

"devastating" "exhausted" "happening again" 💔 V22 artists today about the upcoming eviction. Hackney council has an opportunity to support artists. The council must value the building fairly & allow V22 to preserve the character, history & community here.
