Discovering Polish Ravenscourt Park
Come join us for an exciting event where we will be Discovering Polish Ravenscourt!
We meet at the members only POSKlub on the 4th floor of POSK where we can have a snack, a beverage and a chat before we start. We will learn about the history of POSK and the variety of activities that take place there.
Our next experience will be to meet the painter Joanna Ciechanowska and to go with her to see her exhibition which is in the POSK Gallery. Next, Joanna, who is Director of the POSK Gallery, will take us around the building to look at the centre art collection. After a short rest, we will then stroll through Ravenscourt Park, seeing an important memorial on the way, to the beautiful Polish RC church of St Andrew Bobola. Finally, there will be an optional stop at the Eagle pub in Askew Road from where buses can take you to wherever you need to go.
A few more things:
Ours are not the usual regular walks or guided tours.The fee helps us with the research and preparation, recces and arrangements needed to make it a unique experience shaped on the day by sights seen, places visited, people encountered and especially, by all the participants and what they share with us. Apart from learning about the area, we learn about and from one another. Then we go away enriched by a unique experience and maybe having made new friends.
After the walk, you can, if you want to, keep in touch with others through our We share pictures, memories and knowledge if we wish to. And if you haven't followed us on Eventbrite, or given us a review, please do so, and tell your friends about us!
