Our next screening at Mirth, Marvel & Maud (former Granada cinema) at 186 Hoe St, Walthamstow E17 4QH on Saturday 18th May is QUADROPHENIA (Franc Roddam, 1979, Cert 18). Come along and celebrate the 40th anniversary of this iconic teen film and also the gig that The Who played at this iconic venue. This screening is part of an evening of celebrations.

Our screenings at the Wild Card Brewery (Ravenswood site) continue on Thursday 23rd May with FREE SOLO (J. Chinn & E.C. Vasarhelyi, 2018, Cert 12A). A quite breathtaking documentary providing a stunning, intimate and unflinching portrait of free soloist climber Alex Honnold as he prepares to achieve his lifelong dream: climbing the face of the world’s most famous rock – the 3,200 foot El Capitan in Yosemite National Park … without a rope.

Following another sold out screening of our first feature THE TRICYCLE THIEF (Marcus Shepherd, 2018) at Gnome House recently, we will be screening it in a local school for pupils and their families to enjoy. We are planning more screenings so do get in touch if you would like to host a screening of this Children’s Film Foundation inspired children’s film in which once again you will witness the power of children’s secret networks to foil the grown ups.

For the Chingford May Day Fayre the London Borough of Culture is looking for cyclists to join Bicycle Ballet (no prior dance experience necessary). If you can ride a bike and signal confidently then join world-class artists and take centre stage at Chingford May Day Fayre! They will train you up to take part in one of two performances which will lead the way between Walthamstow and Chingford on Saturday 4^th May.
This will be a fun event we are sure and you can sign up to take part – here (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdclQNBofc3MpHxFlnncD1VkVopE_PLfKGlKy0VateWgBBYHQ/viewform)
