About this project


Last year Kickstarter helped us launch and run the very first Literary Kitchen Festival. It was a huge success, hosting 31 events, and showcasing over 100 writers, artists, performers, indy publishers, agents and even a dog! It?s 2015 and we?re back! This year will see over 170 participants perform in 19 venues across one week, 12-18 October.


With Arts Council support we are able to host our very first Writer-in-Residence, Thomas Darby. Thomas invites you to make contact during the week of the festival, to become part of a new work. More information will be available soon on the festival web page and programme.


This year we join forces with Lit Crawl London, to create an epic 15 venue Friday night literary crawl around Peckham. Your funds will help us organise an army of stewards to lead punters from event to event on the night, and stop people from straying off or getting lost and missing out on a choice of 15 FREE events + After Party. We will make High-Vis Literary Kitchen vests, to let Peckham know what is going on.


With your help, we will also collaborate with Writing Maps to make a limited edition Writing Map for Peckham, available free for the week of the festival from The Peckham Pelican. This illustrated map of Rye Lane and Peckham Square will include prompts to get you writing, as well as nuggests of prime info about Peckham poets, bards and playwrights past and present.


The festival includes walks, talks, workshops, readings, performances and the now infamous Agent-Led Dog Walk, with Curtis Brown?s Carrie Kania and her literary sniffer dog Miss Foxy Beckett.


Literary Kitchen Festival develops and champions new writing, harnesses the genius of its community and makes the processes of writing visible and available. If you are a writer, a reader or someone with a passion for the arts, and for Peckham, then this is a festival for you. Please help to put Peckham on the London literary map, and support emerging talent and avant garde approaches and practices.

      Fireworks

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?

      Recommendation for a decorator in Dulwich/Peckham/Nunhead - Kam 07949 507412

      By Charlie15 · Posted

      Kam was with us last week to wallpaper a bedroom. He was a pleasure to deal with and did a fantastic job - very neat and matched the tricky pattern very well. Would certainly use again.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By TittyMaster · Posted

      What a bunch of pieholes. 2025 and you peasants have nothing to be grateful for. I have been inside the library recently and honestly the old girl is crying for a facelift, the goddamn carpet looks like it survived the world war and some. The Library is one of the oldest in Southwark and you are crying about a study place? What a bunch of bullshit. You have libraries all around you for your kids to go their studying you rotten sausage. How about be happy that the library is going to look absolutely stunning rather than be a whining bitch about it   Also, I have been told that the staffs have to work in the smaller libraries together. How do you think they feel?
