I would like to add my thanks and congratulations to you Ingrid and to everyone who clearly made so much effort to make this happen, I saw the large wall peices going up but totally missed the fact that it was connected to the Picture Gallery or there was an Art Festival in May. Is there a mailing list I could join to be kept informed about activities in the future?


I've seen a dramatic change to Dulwich in the 13 years I've lived here, mostly it's gentrification, this was a breath of fresh air, a little raw and edgy. Loved it.

This is so fantastic. I just moved to East Dulwich in June, and I've been utterly smitten by the street art as I walk around. Now that I know a bit of the story, I'm even more smitten. Will be signing up for one of the walking tours soon. Thanks so much. Going to love living here.

Thank you for your lovely comments! There is going to be an article about the whole project in this Sunday's Observer, Arts and Culture section. And this Sunday's walk is in Time Out, http://www.timeout.com/london/art/dulwich-street-art-festival-tours?intcid=leader so the numbers will be huge. I suggest that if you are around on 22 or 29 Sept, they would be better bets.


If you want to keep up with what is going on you could like Dulwich Outdoor Gallery Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/DulwichOutdoorGallery?ref=hl which I try to keep up. RUN is painting a wall tomorrow in Forest Hill next to the Sylvian Post pub on Dartmouth Road. Its based on St Rita by Poussin! http://www.dulwichpicturegallery.org.uk/collection/search_the_collection/artwork_detail.aspx?cid=191

    • I am quoting what a Tory SPAD said about Jenrick.  I've not analysed Jenrick's exact words but it sounds like he is going down the GB News route which if true is rather sad.  This was picked up by the media so you can follow this up - an article below, the Mail and Telegraph may have alternative takes. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jan/05/badenoch-defends-jenricks-remarks-about-people-from-alien-cultures I could stereotype and generalise about many cultures, races, nationalities and religions but I try not to.  I'd rather hear in more detail from a Pakistani community leader and the like rather than a white privileged politician.   https://mcb.org.uk/the-muslim-council-of-britain-calls-for-jenrick-to-be-sacked/
    • I think it should be free and they should pay £1 for every one on target. Proceeds to go towards a Xmas bonus for the street cleaners.
    • Thank you Hayley , kind words .. see you in around 6wks or so , I look forward to the task of renovating your bathroom and utility area . I think these are the only two rooms I haven’t worked on yet . Thanks !
    • Sorry Malumbu, but to say that Pakistani men are being 'demonised' is disgraceful. The men in the rape gangs were predominantly from Pakistan - that is a fact.  To suggest pointing this out is victimisation totally undermines the horror that the predominantly white young girls suffered at their hands. The men exploited this, using their nationality as a shield, and told their victims they wouldn't be believed. And they were right - some of he brave people who did call it out lost their jobs.  To deny there is a strong cultural element to this, so as to protect your fear of being seen as anything other than liberal and progressive, is disingenuous at the very least. And to suggest that calling it out is far right is insane, I'm sure plenty women and girls of Pakistani heritage would agree.  That Jenrick and Badenoch have picked this up and used it as a political football is a really disappointing start to the year, though at least today's debate in PMQs was respectful in its tone. But for the victims to have this glibly brought up and used to bait the other side just goes to show how little some of the protagonists really care about them.
