SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: Stanley Picker Gallery's exhibition - A Simultaneous Agreement
DESCRIPTION:All are welcome to the Stanley Picker Gallery’s exhibition ‘A Simultaneous Agreement’ presented as part of London Rivers Week 2026. The exhibition officially runs from 22 April to 18 July 2026. \nThe Stanley Picker Gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday 11am to 5pm (during exhibitions). There’s no need to book a ticket\, just drop in. \nRooted in the Hogsmill River beside the gallery\, the exhibition traces connections between English chalk streams\, Saharan phosphate mines\, and global extraction networks\, foregrounding water as both a life source and contested infrastructure. At its centre is a functioning glass fountain that filters river water inside the gallery\, alongside wearable activated-charcoal sculptures that question the logic and limits of technological purification and circular-economy solutions. \nOperating as both exhibition and civic platform\, the gallery becomes a consultation space and site for live performance\, contributing evidence towards a campaign to designate part of the Hogsmill as bathing water. \nAll under-18s must be accompanied by an adult. Please bring a bottle of water.

SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: Tidal Tales - Walking Through Flux & Flow
DESCRIPTION:Kicking off London Rivers Week\, Thames21 will be going on a river walking adventure with artist Remiiya Badru from King Edward Memorial Park\, in Wapping\, and concluding at Blackfriars\, prior to the unveiling of a new artwork in a new exciting space developed for the public realm. \nOn our journey we will be exploring key landmarks along this stretch of river from London’s oldest pub and Captain Kidd\, key bridges and crossings plus some of the lesser known stories of our social geographies\, communities and industrial history. This multisensorial walk will also embody an opportunity to connect to the river as nature for our wellbeing as a sanctuary of sustenance. We will be weaving our way through a number of timelines through witnessing infrastructural and environmental changes. How do we see the river for the future? \nBOOK HERE \nDate and time: Saturday 23rd May. 11.30am-14:00pm \n📏 Distance: ~4.8 km (3 miles) \n📍 Route: We will meet at the new Tideway site at King Edward Memorial Park finishing at the new Tideway riverside public realm at Blackfriars. Click here to view the route we will follow. \n🕒 Duration: ~2 plus hours (give or take depending on pace & breaks) \n👟 Terrain: Flat riverside paths — nice for walking and talking \nBring: Please wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing and bring a bottle of water and snacks. \nArtist Bio: \nRemiiya Badru is a multi-interdisciplinary artist\, whose practice centres on sharing her river-walking adventures through research-informed multimedia artwork and social engagement. She seeks to undertake a multi-layered exploration of the River Thames’ forever changing palette of colour\, sight\, scent\, sound and story\, but also its silences\, omissions and hidden histories of people and place. \nIn her walking practice\, Badru seeks to commune with and responding to the river as a timeless resource from a multi-sensorial perspective\, entering an immersive and embodied meditation in motion. She externalises these experiences through mapping\, wayfinding and placemaking. The stories that Badru seeks to uncover relate to the river as a witness to infrastructural change and flux\, particularly in relation to memory\, colonial and post-colonial histories\, pre- and post-industrial change\, heritage\, natural and man-made environments. \nHer work continues to be navigated by Timehri\, her model ship who is in fact simultaneously her ‘navigator’ and ‘anchoress’ who continues to guide Badru in her travels along the river and associated bodies of water. Together they navigate these embodiments of water as ‘liquid history flowing as a continuum which synchronises the past\, present and future that connects all of us as a global conduit that carries our stories.’ \nAll U18s must be accompanied by an adult.
