Art Night is one of London’s largest free art festivals, presenting exceptional projects and events in unusual locations and the public realm, in a different area of London each year.
As part of our Borough of Culture year, Art Night 2019 will take place on Saturday 22 June (7pm till late) in Walthamstow. Locations will be mainly on and around Walthamstow High Street, with additional sites at Walthamstow Central, St James’s Street, the Village, Hoe Street and William Morris Gallery.
Art Night offers local restaurants, cafes, bars and shops located in the area the opportunity to make the most of an increased number of visitors. All types of participation are encouraged, from later opening hours, a special drink, menu or offer, which will be listed on Art Night's communications materials.

As part of the Mayor of London's plans to clean up London’s air, a new, £23m scheme was announced to help smaller business owners to scrap older, more polluting vans and switch to cleaner vehicles.
The scheme will initially help London’s micro businesses – defined as those with fewer than ten employees – to prepare for the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) by switching to the cleanest vehicles, including electric.
It is planned to be in place ahead of the introduction of the new central London ULEZ, which from 8 April 2019 will bring in charges for vehicles that do not meet stricter emission standards, which applies 24 hours a day-365 days a year. Diesel vans which do not meet the latest Euro 6 standard will have to pay £12.50 a day to drive in central London.
