It’s Christmas in November

Time has flown and the Gallery has grown in reputation and spirit. The Art Gallery of Lambeth is hosting their 3rd annual Christmas Show and Sale this Friday November 16th from 7-10pm. The little gallery, so neatly tucked away in the Westminster Plaza off Main Street in Lambeth, has become well known for their high quality art collections and their community endeavors. This November the Gallery’s art show and sale will be part of some larger festivities that same evening.


The Art Gallery of Lambeth is co-hosting the second annual ‘Light Up Lambeth’ celebration in partnership the Lambeth Community Association, Jaydancin and the sponsorship of the Lambeth businesses. The family friendly events all take place on the premises where both the Art Gallery and Jaydancin are situated. Vivian Tserotas and Brenda Colley, the Art Gallery of Lambeth owners, have teamed up with Geoff Faul from the Lambeth Community Association to help organize an event that will be promoting the spirit of community, family, giving and, of course, Christmas.




At the Art Gallery you will enjoy an art show and sale which includes thirty five of the London area’s finest artists. The show features art of all different mediums including painting, textiles, photography, mixed media, and sculpture. The gift boutique is stocked with handcrafted jewellery, one of kind glass work, note cards, and much more. Enjoy a beverage and snacks while you gaze upon the art and listen to the live music.
 
Watch Lambeth light up when the Lambeth street lights and Christmas lights are ignited and then enjoy the crisp night air with hot chocolate, caroling, and a visit from the old man himself, Santa Claus!
Jaydancin is celebrating the Christmas cheer with their doors open event where you will find handmade natural and organic cosmetics and soaps. Come in and warm up with some of their very own warm and delicious beverages.

The “Light up Lambeth” event will take place in the Westminster plaza on Main Street in Lambeth. Both The Art Gallery of Lambeth and Jaydancin are established there. The event is free but please consider bringing a gift of non-perishable food, which will be distributed to families in need at the Southdale Chaplaincy.
The event is to take place this Friday November 16th starting at 6:30 pm. The Art Gallery of Lambeth’s opening reception for the Christmas in November show will be open until 10pm.

The event is located at 2454 Main Street in the Westminster Plaza right in Lambeth.


Everyone is welcome to come celebrate Christmas with the Art Gallery of Lambeth, Jaydancin, and the community of Lambeth in our beautiful little village. See you there!
