MOCA London and The Queer Life Drawing Conversation are inviting you to join them for the first ever Peckham Queer Art Boot Fair. Over 50 artists from the LGBTQ+ community and their allies will be showing works of art on Bellenden and Choumert Roads in the heart of Peckham.
The event is free for all to come along and look, join in the free life drawing events and purchase wonderful works (such as prints, drawings, sculptures, photos, ceramics, and clothing design) from amazing contemporary artists.
The fair will open to the public at 12 noon for 3 hours so it is not a long day. Many of the local shops participating are also planning wonderful surprises too!
They will have friendly volunteers in MOCA branded rainbow shirts to guide you. The event will also feature artists from the Peckham Levels studios.
Lockdown and arts funding cuts have made us aware that many Queer archives may be lost, so the event is another way of sharing Queer Art/objects in the public space, where they may be seen, archived and discussed with local communities. The Queer LDC and Drawing People Together (Lucie Russell) will run a pop-up drawing event on Choumert Road and they would love people to bring along any Queer objects they would like to share or have drawn on the day.
Peckham Queer Art Boot Fair is on Sunday August 29, 12 – 3 PM
Bellenden Road (SE15 4QY) and Choumert Market (SE15 4SE) Closest station Peckham Rye.
