Earlier this year we got the exciting news, that plans were afoot to repair the murals on the Lambeth Walk. Creative Sparkworks and Ethelred TMO are working to repair the artworks which consist of five paintings on boards which were created in the early 1980s by muralists, Gordon Wilkinson and Sarah Faulkner. Each mural shows a different aspect of Lambeth Walk life, from the women artists at the Lambeth Doulton factory, the local stars of the music hall to life on the busy market street of Lambeth Walk.
To mark the beginning of their project, an event will be held on 24th May from 12pm to 2pm outside the murals which are located on Lambeth Walk. There will be a chance to learn about the history of the area, hear some music hall songs, have some pie and mash and meet the original artists.
Hope to see you there!
