The sun’s out and we have created a list of the best places to visit and things to do.
Eel Pie Island Artists Summer Open Studios
Sat/Sun 29/30th June & 6/7th July 11-6 pm all 4 days.
There aren’t that many bits of London that are secret anymore, but the residents of Eel Pie Island have done a very good job at keeping their island as clandestine as possible. Only accessible by boat or via a little footbridge. Twice a year the public is allowed to visit the island’s Open Studios event. The summer open days are a chance to see inside the work spaces of 26 artists, from painters and potters to sculptors.
