LADA's Online Summer Fete: call for proposals – CancelledUpdate: As LADA wasn't able to hold our first ever Summer Fete at the Garrett Centre this July because of Covid-19, we were planning do it online as part of our Summer Programme and issued a call for proposals to run stalls from home.So many artist and groups told us they loved the idea, but that running an online stall wasn't something they would be able to right now for all kinds of reasons.We have therefore decided to postpone the Summer Fete and refocus our plans for this gathering of artists and activists in our annual Festive Fete.Please do check out our Summer Programme of screenings, talks, presentations and 'live' online events, including contributions by LADA's artist Patrons, a selection of LADA Screens Greatest Hits and the presentations of Once More with Feeling – a series of instruction and reenactment pieces commissioned by LADA during the Covid-19 pandemic.Art, gifts, ideas and experiencesSunday 19 July, from noon to 3pmLADA was planning to host its first ever Summer Fete at The Garrett Centre this July, to complement our annual Festive Fair, but then the Covid-19 crisis hit and everything changed.Although our office is closed and all public events at The Garrett Centre postponed for the foreseeable future, we are developing an online Summer Programme that draws on the incredible resources and resourcefulness of the artists and organisations who work with, around, and for Live Art.As part of this Summer Programme, we will host an online Summer Fete and are inviting artists, activists and social action groups to propose stalls that they would be able to run from home.Call for proposals to run an online Summer Fete stall with LADA – application deadline Monday 15 JuneStalls will sell (or give away/promote) items with a focus on:Affordable 'artworks' by artists, especially related to Live Art, and particularly local East London based artists.Materials produced by, or promoting initiatives by, local community, social action, and/or activist organisations.Individuals and groups selling materials produced by or promoting initiatives around ideas of neighbours/neighbourhoods.We encourage stall holders to think about selling items that can be easily distributed by post or courier, and/or things that can be disseminated digitally, and/or other kinds of transactions (offering online experiences for example). It may be that some things can't be dispatched for a few months, but as long as that's made clear to customers, that's OK with us.We would also encourage stallholders to think about the look of their stall – the backdrop and décor – and approach it as a kind of installation.The Fete will run from noon to 3pm on the 19th July, and stalls must be 'open' during these times.There are no costs for running a stall and all proceeds will be kept by stallholders. However, we do encourage stall holders to make a donation from any proceeds towards a chosen cause, if appropriate, ideally those worst affected by the impacts of Covid-19.If you or your organisation are interested running a stall at LADA's Summer Fete please complete the simple application form by Monday 15 June.
