Join us at Tate Modern for a FREE visit to the Kazimir Malevich exhibition.

Malevich, an artist as influential as he was radical, cast a long shadow over the history of modern art. This, his first retrospective in thirty years and the first ever in the UK, unites works from collections in Russia, the US and Europe to tell a fascinating story of revolutionary ideals and the power of art itself.

FREE, but bookings can only be taken at the General Meeting on Tuesday 21st October.

“Dear secretary/chair

Please note the invitation to you and your association below about a very exciting upcoming event. It is necessary to register as detailed.

We look forward to as many as possible attending. Be careful to respond as below, not to me though we will be sending reminders.

Dear Committee member

I am writing to let you know about an event coming up that I would like to get as many local people involved in as possible.

For the first time, we’re going to be holding a Leader’s Public Question Time, where the public can hold myself and the cabinet directly to account.

The event will be taking place at 6.30pm on 22 October at City Hall, the home of the Greater London Authority in SE1. Jumoké Fashola, award-winning radio and television broadcaster, famed jazz singer and Southwark resident will chair the debate and keep the questions and answers moving.

I am very excited for this opportunity for Southwark residents to put questions directly to me about the issues that really matter to them. I’m looking forward to a challenging, exciting discussion that I hope will give residents a different type of forum to make their views heWe expect this to be a very popular event so I wanted to offer you the chance to register your interest in attending.
