The Big Noise: Small Sessions

Over the next few months, leading up to a beautiful summertime, The Big Noise 2013 presents a series of fantastic fundraisers in aid of The Big Issue Foundation.

The events comprise a series of small arts and music festivals, Big Noise: Small Sessions, in the build up to a huge and multi-spatial arts festival at The Bussey Building / CLF Arts Cafe on 8th June 2013.

The first build-up fundraiser is due to take place on Sunday 3rd March from 3pm at The Speakeasy within Hackney Downs Studios and we are pretty excited about it.

As with all of the events, this one will showcase diverse and exciting local and emerging artists. It will promote and celebrate visual artists, performers and musicians and will involve short-films, spoken word artists, acoustic performers and bands, whilst exploring homelessness within contemporary society and London, in particular.

The full line-up is the Facebook page, and will include short-films from Alternative London and Cardboard Citizens, spoken word from World Slam Poet Champion 2012 Harry Baker and music from the likes of Lychee and The Yes Mess, amongst other fantastic talents.

There will be food and drink, generously donated by local individuals, organisations and businesses, as well as further special features, which will be revealed at the event.

And tickets are only £5 in advance. Bargain. Get your tickets here.

We can’t wait and we hope to see you there.
