Howl Quartet – Thursday, 9 May
Calling all jazz fans – the acoustic Howl Quartet is coming to Twickenham's premier jazz venue, The Jazz Sanctuary.
Howl Quartet takes inspiration from "Howl", Allen Ginsberg's seminal poem. The immediacy of the verse and intense conviction behind Ginsberg's writing reflects the band's approach to composition and performance: dynamic, expressive, and with an emphasis on storytelling through melodic composition and improvisation.
Formed of old friends and collaborators, this co-led acoustic quartet emerged in 2017 through a passion for developing a collective sound. They are set to record their third album later this year.
Bar opens at 7:15pm for the first set at 7:45pm. Food is available to order throughout the gig.
Arts Richmond Picnic – Sunday, 12 May
Art Richmond says this year's picnic promises to be one of our best with guest speaker Roxanna Panufnik, live entertainment and raffle prizes.
Roxanna will be talking about her Coronation commission, 'Sanctus', sharing with us her inspiration and creative process.
Bring your friends and your best picnic and enjoy a very special afternoon together!
The picnic starts at midday. Tickets are required for attendance.
May Fair and Affordable Art Tent – Saturday, 11 May
Richmond's May Fair is this weekend, and alongside the usual festivities is the Affordable Art Tent, courtesy of Art Richmond.
Housing hundreds of pieces from local artists, the tent has one rule: under £100!
Come grab a bargain – and a possible future masterpiece – at the May Fair this weekend.
The tent will be at Richmond's May Fair on Richmond Green this Saturday.
