Friday Jan 13th: Last Orders at The Bun House

The Bun House pub, 96 Peckham High Street (opposite the Library) closes at the end of this month. The last art exhibition in its upstairs room has a private view from 7pm on Friday 13th, running until  the 27th. "Tracing Reflection" is a one-man show from Timo Kube, described thus: "Set in the context of The Bun House, with its rich history, and in light of the latest news – its immanent closure subject to commercial property development – the works seep into the space and evoke an increased sense of reflection on the present as a situation."

Have a good break...

See you in the New Year!
