Green Sundays

Arcola Green Sundays are free bi-monthly events that provide an informal and friendly meeting place for people to explore environmental issues through film, music, theatre, poetry and discussion – a chance to celebrate, question and propose different ways of viewing the world and exploring new visions of the future. Join us at our next Green Sunday to relax, learn something new, eat sustainable food, meet interesting people and enjoy live music and films.
