Lambeth Archives Open Day
Date: 25 September
Lambeth Archives open day is an annual opportunity to get to know one of the less-well known but arguably one of the most fascinating of Lambeth Council's services. The council's archives at the Minet Library, close to Myatt's Fields, present the historical records of the council and of local organisations and businesses. The archive holds over 50,000 photographs, several thousand old maps, local newspapers back to the 1840s and much more - all providing a remarkable window into Lambeth's past.
This year's open day, 'Screen Lambeth', explores the local history of cinema going, film locations and home movies with a mixture of film screenings, illustrated talks, practical workshops and advice.
When: 10am - 5pm
Where: Minet Library, 52 Knatchbull Road, London SE5 9QY
Cost: Free
