Capoeira is still going on in South London with Federico working hard to keep things going! Capoeira has recently been happening in Lilian Bailey School as well as sharing time with other capoeira groups to celebrate the new year. Please keep in touch with Fede (07931303096) and have a look to the NG Capoeira page to know where and when will be the next workshop!  NG has been welcome by an amazing woman in a community centre that she runs. This community centre is promoting cultural diversity so NG will defenetly fit into that space! We have great hope in this place and I’m sure we’ll achieve great things over there! Please come to help SUNDAY 6th DECEMBER from 1pm until 7pm to tidy everything up as we already moved everything there but the place is in a mess now because of aaaaall the stuffs NG has :s You might have received from NG and want to give in return, if this is the case, come sunday ! The address is QMMAC, The Diversity Centre, 62 Brewery Road, London N79NY. Tube station : Caledonian road (piccadily line). See you there ! By the way: We are still looking for a space in South London as many of NG participants and coordinators live south. So that’d be great if we can at least have a few weekly couple of hours slots in a space located in south. So if you here about anything, please let Paula/Ingrid/German/Fede/Adrien/Diana/Claudia/Jimmy know about that or email us at info@nuevageneracion-uk.org ! Dear Friends, We regret to inform you that after some long discussions with Tim Boxall (which has been a very difficult proceedure, as he has proved to be very unreasonable and inconsiderate towards everyone, using mannerisms and provocative language that have been sabotaging the work which brings us together and close to the local community). Tim Boxall is the chair of VGCC management commitee. VGCC has changed the locks on Friday 27th November, without informing anybody, even though the time he has given to us is until Sunday 29th November (As publically stated in a notice posted on the front entrance to VGCC by Mr. Boxall) and New Generation particpants and coordinators have been denied access to their equipment. We are very upset with the attitude and lack of interest we have been shown by all the local authorities that we have contacted, such as Catherine Miller-Bassi (Head of Lambeth Arts), Dawn Bunce (Arts Development Officer), Lambeth Voluntary Action, The Law Society, South London Press, Chris Norris whom we approached and whose answer was ‘ Tim sits opposite me in the same department and I can’t do anything about it’, Boris Johnson (Mayor of London), different Lambeth counsellors who never returned our calls and many more we will be named next week. This goes to show that we have been regarded with contempt and at no point has our contribution and service to the local and wider London community been acknowledged, due to his strong connections with certain key people who are suppose to be helping groups like ours. As a reminder: Nueva Generacion has been running FREE WORKSHOPS for the community in VGCC for the past 4 years and in London for the past 12 years. → continue reading about "URGENT DO NOT IGNORE – NG evicted from VGCC !"

You can see the pics that antonio, ed and tito took on this links : http://www.nuevageneracion-uk.org/?page_id=1148 NG is going to take part for the 2nd time in the Thames Festival Parade. Launched in 1997, The Mayor’s Thames Festival has grown to become London’s largest free open-air arts festival, and is now in its twelfth year. Every year key London roads are closed to traffic for the Thames Festival’s spectacular finale event, the Night Procession, with over 2,000 musicians, dancers, performers and masqueraders come from across the country and the world with lanterns, illuminated costumes and fantastic structures. The Procession takes place on Sunday 13th September 2009, starting at 7.15pm on Victoria Embankment, travels east crossing the Thames at Blackfriars Bridge, and finishes behind the Royal National Theatre and Southbank Centre.
