One of my favourite annual events, the London Open House Weekend, has confirmed the dates for 2009 – and I am now marking the weekend of 19th-20th September as unavailable for anything else.
I usually buy the Event Programme as it does contain a lot of information and acts as a useful guide for the rest of the year of “places that might be interesting to visit” if I can’t make it on the open weekend and they are open on other days.
Usefully, they are taking pre-orders for the brochure and orders placed before 30th April will be sold at last years price of £4.50 (I presume there will be a price rise later?)
Go here to pre-order the guide.
SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE
This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.
It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.
If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.
Thank you
I usually pick up a copy for free from a library. Not sure if you get it earlier if you order, though.
Not sure – but I am incredibly lazy and prefer things to just appear suddenly in the mail box without any effort on my part 😉
