Artification is planning to hold a free family event at the W3 Venue on North Acton Playing Fields (W3 0JF).

The community arts organisation recently took over management of the facility and will be hosting the event there on Saturday 14 September from 1-4pm.

Stalls will include a book shop and those from local designer makers such as potter Farin and Peter Filbey. Food stalls include Japanese street food from Mushi Kitchen, Modo’s cuisine and the W3 Baking Club. Activities will include face painting and art for children.

The programme of entertainment starts at 1.30pm with Choir & Dancing Folklore from the Local Japanese Hobby Group followed by local singing group A Wing and a Prayer at 2.15pm, Zumba by Ana at 3.30pm and the drummers of Dance Carib from 3.30pm.

The Artification vision is to connect people and places through art. It aims to make this happen by responding to local needs and developing arts and cultural venues, with initiatives that bring communities together.

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We've always done that and won't be changing, in fact we'd like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we'd be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you'd like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT.
