Call for input! London Lines - festival of neighbourhood at Southbank this weekend


Recommended Posts

Though I live in Peckham I'm representing the London Borough of Westminster in this weekend's London Lines event at the Southank.

I've worked in Wesminster for 9 years so have lots of memories and associations with Whitehall and places nearby.


My task is to record memories, thoughts and associations people have of Westminster and all it's districts - Soho, Covent Garden, Victoria, Mayfair, Fitzrovia etc) and then use them to create a poem which will then become part of a giant poetry map of London in the Clore Ballroom of the Royal Festival Hall.


If you have anything to share please contact me either on DM here, by leaving a comment or by tweeting me @msamykey


I'd love to hear your thoughts so I can help put them on the poetry map.


Many thanks

Amy
