Thanks for a wonderful festival

By Rosie | 10 June 2015

Brockley Max 2015 is over for another year and what a great festival it was! We were blessed with the weather and the Art In The Park family day was the icing on the cake of our best ever festival.

Thank you to all of you who came to events. Please let us know what you enjoyed as your comments all help towards future funding. You can give us feedback by emailing info@brockleymax.co.uk.

If you took any photos we’d love to see them. For instructions for submitting them see Take part in our photo exhibition.

Thank you to all the event organisers, performers and venues who put on shows. At over 70 events put on this year, there was a great mix of events and performances!

Huge thanks to our sponsors – Bryan & Keegan, Brockley’s Rock, BoultbeeLDN, Peveril Securities and Shape Real Estate, The Talbot, The Brockley Deli, The Orchard, Proud Sow, Wetherspoons, Green Tea Architects and Brookbank Drycleaners, and to all the advertisers and local businesses who gave auction/raffle prizes, paid for listings and let us display posters and programmes. We couldn’t run the festival the without support you all give to Brockley Max and we really appreciate it.

Thanks too, to Brockley Central, Croftonpark.com, The Ladywell Tavern and all the other blogs and websites that give the festival editorial promotion.

Brockley Max would not have been possible without funding from Lewisham Council, Awards For All Big Lottery Fund and the people in the wards of Brockley, Ladywell and Crofton Park who voted for Brockley Max at Assembly meetings and everyone who donated via Patchwork Present.

I personally owe a huge debt to the organising committee who start work in September and who spend months writing funding applications, selling advertising, seeking sponsorship, writing press releases, organising events, designing the programmes & posters and just about everything else!

Also all the volunteers who delivered programmes, collected litter, took photographs, sold raffle tickets, erected and dismantled tents, fetched and carried and did the 101 jobs required to run such a big festival. If you’d like to be involved next year we’d love to have you on board.

We’re looking forward to seeing you all again next year!
