Sorry for this very long news post - but too much to mention and all last gasp!
Herne Hill straddles Lambeth AND Southwark, so here's info about a festival next weekend in Nunhead, which is turning out to be a hotspot for arts, crafts and grassroots music.
Part of Southwark's Elephant & the Nun weekender (billed as "A free family festival like no other" offering 9 events in 9 spaces in 2 days), the 'Nunhead Experience' will happen SUNDAY Sept 2nd. It'll be a largely bicycle-powered arts & crafts fest, reminiscent of the alt energy ethos HH had at the Urban Green Fair in Brockwell Park (remember the solar powered cinema?) which last we looked is dead and gone. On SATURDAY the 1st it is the Aquarius Festival at the Aquarius Golf Links, on the Nunhead/Honor Oak border.
