Traders Wanted For Lift Moltenfestival This Bank Holiday Weekend
Published 26th Aug 2009 by Molten Festival - Sara Doctors

I run the LIFT Molten Festival in Barking, East London. We’d like to offer free stalls and pitches at our “Global Village Fete” this Bank Holiday Weekento any traders and performers who were meant to be at Beachdown this weekendd.

The full programme and more info can be found at www.liftmoltenfestival.com

Molten Festival started as a small community event to bring together a divided community (you may be aware of the political situation here…) and has grown into a major regional arts festival. This year we’re collaborated with LIFT (London International Festival of Theatre) and taken over a scheduled ancient monument in the centre of Barking to offer 11 days of outlandish spectacle, theatre, international music and this weekend the “Global Village Fete”.

Please help us spread the word to all traders and performers who want to work this weekend – we’d love to have them, the more the merrier! We’re billing the event like this:

Bring your sunscreen, a brolly, and all your friends and family for a long weekend of fun and laughter.
