All of us here at Rich Mix are getting very excited about the fantastic spring programme we have for you - the range VM�MLZ[P]HSZ�^L�OH]L�VU�VɈLY�as the days get longer and the nights get lighter really is second to none.
Highlights include the Re-Sound Festival at the end of February; three days of performance from Bengal and beyond, taking in music & dance as well as family events and workshops. Expression
Sessions; two days of cross-arts performance and installations from emerging artists. The London Remixed Festival, for which 25 bands and DJs will play on four stages, for two days of fantastic new music. And in March we have Freedom Week, celebrating a range of aspects of Bangladesh culture and marking its day of independence. Choose from over 10 events across art forms to bring your friends and families to.
We are still being overwhelmed by some of the things you’re telling us about Rich Mix; have a look at our blog to see what folk are saying about why #RichMixMatters to them. If you want to add your voice, email me at [email protected]
