Artist launches exhibition in Lambeth cafe
The newly-opened Yard Cafe in Lambeth has opened an exhibition of paintings and prints by artist Reuben Powell.
The exhibition, called No Footpath at Ground Level, features works of the now demolished Heygate Estate that used to stand at the top of Walworth Road.
Mr Powell has lived and worked in Elephant and Castle for more than 35 years.
His work focuses on the fast-changing landscape of his neighbourhood, and the disappearance of the old and emergence of the new.
The Yard Cafe has opened in the garden and dining room of a gothic-style Victorian courthouse.
It is open Tuesday to Sunday and serves vegetarian and vegan salads, sandwiches, pastries, cakes and coffee.
Everyone at the South London Press thanks you for your continued support.
Former Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick has encouraged everyone in the country who can afford to do so to buy a newspaper, and told the Downing Street press briefing:
“A FREE COUNTRY NEEDS A FREE PRESS, AND THE NEWSPAPERS OF OUR COUNTRY ARE UNDER SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL PRESSURE”
