We Are Lewisham

We Are Lewisham was presented by Lewisham Council in partnership with the Albany as part of the Mayor’s London Borough of Culture 2022.

Matthew Schmolle Productions produced 9 projects as part of Lewisham's Borough Of Culture Year including Time Out London's 2022 Show Of The Year, ''Sun and Sea''.

 

We Are Lewisham was a year-long cultural programme celebrating Lewisham's history, people and place, with hundreds of events in venues, parks and street corners. Created by the people of Lewisham.

IMPACT

In 2022, Lewisham came together for a year-long celebration like no other. 
At over 600 events in venues, parks and street corners, to audiences of over 400,000 people, we told the story of Lewisham’s trailblazers past and present.

Our year showcased the borough’s rich history of activism through spectacular live performances, dazzling visual art and innovative dance, music and debate. We inspired change with a call to action on the climate emergency and a spotlight on Lewisham’s diverse communities.

Jointly led by the Albany and Lewisham Council, We Are Lewisham was co-created by and with the people of Lewisham, bringing together all of our neighbourhoods, communities and stories.

Introduced by the Mayor of London in 2017, London Borough of Culture is an award that sees London’s 32 boroughs bid for over £1m of funding to stage a programme of cultural events. The award brings Londoners together, putting culture at the heart of local communities to shine a light on the character of London’s boroughs.
