MayFest: Men of Mystery

Dulwich Picture Gallery host this brand new cultural festival boasting a line-up of topnotch cinema, exhibition tours, swing dancing and street food set within the Gallery grounds. The event celebrates the work of Alfred Hitchcock and 20th century artist Eric Ravilious whose work is often said to have been inspired by Hitchcock's shadowy interiors and peculiar perspectives. Late night openings will take place on the Friday and Saturday (May 15-16) with outdoor screenings, food from the West Norwood Feast, a pop-up vintage shop from East Dulwich's ChiChiRaRa, and prizes for the best 1930s and 40s dressed guests up for grabs. Other highlights include a mass-installation drop-in workshop where families are invited to create work with a guest artist, and an 'Eye Spy' storytelling session bring Ravilious' paintings to life for little visitors.
