FLACK Fundraiser: Glenn Hutchinson, Toby Peters + Friends

Wfreemansmith — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:47:00 +0000

Start: 27 Sep 2012 - 19:00

Timezone: Etc/GMT

Hosted by Glenn Hutchinson and Toby Peters, CB2’s upstairs area is set to become a bustling hubbub of musical and spoken word performance in aid of FLACK Magazine – a local charity working creatively with people who’ve experienced homelessness.

Glenn Hutchinson is a poet of some renown, originally from Northern Ireland but now finding himself here in Cambridge. He has published several works, notably the collection “On the Border”, and is very much looking forward to reading publically again.

Toby Peters is a musician & filmmaker, currently employed as FLACK’s artist in residence. In 2010 he was awarded the TalkTalk Digital Heroes award for his inspirational contribution to FLACK and unique digital film making. His personal experience of homelessness gives him great empathy in his work.

FLACK Magazine works with people’s potential, not their problems, producing a monthly magazine full of articles, artwork and listings unique to Cambridge. Why not grab a copy on the night?

Donations welcome instead of entry fee :-)

Strawberry Fair is a free volunteer run community music, entertainments, arts and crafts fair held each year on Midsummer Common.

A massed parade of samba bands, steel drums and stunning costumed creatures,

The engaging and entertaining Strawberry Fair Film Festival,

The amazing kids entertainments area - containing, amongst other things, a circus big top, face painting, story telling, a bouncy castle, and plenty of opportunities for fun,

The dynamic, creative and unpredictable Arts Area showcasing some of the Fair's more colourful entertainment,

A wide selection of acts performing on the (main) ‘East Stage', the Future Stage (showcasing the area's amazing young performers), the mysterious Bigwam stage, The relaxing Acoustic Stage, the chilled vibes of the Green Area, a World Music stage - Strawberry World, and the Blaggers Stage for impromptu entertainment in many guises.

Across the Fair, Strawberry Essence aims to make the site an altogether nicer, happier, more colourful place through static and more imaginative décor, and wandering entertainment.
