Arcadia Festival

Croydon arts centre Stanley Arts is behind this wholesome greenfingered festival focussing on climate change, but with events, activties, installations and woekshops that won’t leave you with an existential crisis. Highlights include a screening if the Complicités film ‘Can I Live?’ from artist and activist Fehinti Balogun, who you might know from ‘I May Destroy You’, workshops with the Croydon Beekeepers Association including candle rolling with beeswax, gardening activties with artist and gardener Tracy Holtham, a sunflower grow-along and a community seed swap. There’ll also be two nature walks led by urban wildlife influencer Lira Valencia and journalist and cultural historian Chris Schüler.
