The legendary outfit, whose repertoire ranges from Vivaldi to DJ Sammy, from Bach to Florence Price – and everything in between, and also regularly play pieces that have been composed or arranged by members of the orchestra, will be performing at the closing event for the Future Footsteps exhibition at the Tiny Gallery on November 26th.
This is an immersive letterpress installation by Michelle Dwyer of Nice & Graphic studio, created in collaboration with a group of young people from South London. Each poster shares a thought in a young personʼs own words. Their responses explore hopes and fears for the future, the challenges of growing up today, and the things adults donʼt always understand.
The project is created with Step Out Mentoring, a charity supporting young peopleʼs mental health through outdoor activities, connection and positive opportunities. Their experiences with Step Out — building rafts, exploring London, conquering fears and learning to trust people, became part of the conversations behind the work.
The Peckham Chamber Orchestra was founded in 2013 by Hannah Catherine Jones and has been trying to highlight non-white, non-male performers – the under-represented in the classical world – to entertain audiences for many years.
Tiny Gallery, 146 Wells Way, SE5 7SY.
Exhibition ends on November 26th, with a free concert.
