This event has already taken place.
Window Wanderland is coming to Westminster!
From 16th-20th December, Westminster’s first Window Wanderland will brighten up the dark nights and transform the streets into a magical outdoor gallery for all to enjoy. Window Wanderland is a fun, free, COVID-safe community event involving local residents, schools, community groups and businesses. Supported by EcoWorld London, our first event will feature displays in several areas of Westminster:
CHURCH STREET
We’re asking the Church Street community to get involved and create a fun, colourful art trail around the neighbourhood. To take part, all you need to do is:
- Create a fun display on anything you want and place it in your window
- Tell us where you’re based, to put you on the online map
- Have it shining away in your windows between 16th-20th December
What to do next:
Click ‘more info’ to sign up and take part, or contact us for more information. You’ll get a welcome pack when you sign up and access to lots of inspiration for windows too. Please tell your friends and neighbours and ask them to get involved too!
EBURY EDGE
The Ebury Bridge Estate in south Westminster is home to an eye-catching new development of work and retail space called Ebury Edge. With designs provided by a number of local schools, we will be decorating the windows of Ebury Edge with fantastic artwork for the local community to enjoy.
CARE HOMES AND SHELTERED HOUSING
Some of our residents won’t get the chance to see the Window Wanderland displays our residents are creating, so we are bringing the displays to them! With the help of more fantastic Westminster schools, we will be installing fantastic artistic displays in some of our care homes and sheltered housing sites, so we can bring a little light to their windows for the festive season. We are helping to raise money for Age UK as part of the event – donations of any size are greatly appreciated!
Huge thanks to our local schools who are taking part:
· Golborne Alternative Provision, TBAP Multi-Academy Trust
· Mary Paterson Nursery School
· St. Vincent’s Catholic Primary School
Join in the fun!
We will visit areas taking part to take pictures and post them on our social media channels. If you would like to post a picture/video on your own social accounts, we would love to see them; please tag in @citywestminster and the hashtags #WestminsterWindowWanderland and #WindowWanderland so we can give you a shout out!
