Call for Refugee Artists & Storytellers: The Open- Call for Refugee Artists & Storytellers: The Open-Air Sitting Room

Location: Hilly Fields, SE4 (Brockley Max Festival: Max In The Park)
Date: Saturday, 6th June 2026
Time: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Brockley Max invites artists and performers from sanctuary-seeking backgrounds to lead a vibrant “arts occupation” of Hilly Fields. 130 years ago, social reformer Octavia Hill fought to save Hilly Fields from development, famously describing urban green spaces as the “open-air sitting rooms of the poor.” She believed that “breathing space” was a fundamental human right. Hilly Fields is in Lewisham—the first Borough of Sanctuary—and who continues this legacy by providing a different kind of breathing space for those fleeing conflict and persecution.
We are looking for creative partners to help bring this journey to life.

Full details on our Facebook page - link in bio to view and apply.

We would urge you to join us this year to share your talents. Maybe you are an experienced artist, maybe it would be your first time performing in public - we would love to hear from you. 

It is important for us to celebrate the diversity in Brockley and we encourage artists from the Global Majority to share their talents with us. 

Opening Night is Friday 29th May 2026.
