The inaugural Tithe Grant is now inviting submissions. Applications must be received by 30 June 2010.  For full details see Tithe Grant.  Good luck!

A talk by Carol and Luis Garrido, trustees of the Blake Society, introduced by Kate Kelly and presented by the friends of Tate South Lambeth Library. In which Carol and Luis Garrido turn detective and delve into three centuries of mistakes and mystery in Bunhill Fields cemetery until they finally rediscover the missing grave of William Blake. Join the race to raise the funds for a ledger stone before it becomes forgotten once again.  Donations welcome for 9,77,32 - the campaign to mark Blake’s grave.  Wednesday 9th June at 7pm at Tate South Lambeth Library, 180 South Lambeth Road, London SW8 1QP

The Society is 25 years old and in celebration this year’s programme of events focuses on people whose craft has been inspired by Blake: an experimental filmmaker, a translator, a poet, a singer-songwriter, an orchestral musician, a novelist, a cinema designer and a painter. In a change to our tradition the monthly meetings will begin an hour earlier at 6.30 pm and so will end at 8 pm. We hope that this change will allow more people to travel to our meetings especially those who live outside the mythopolis of London. Our events are free for members to attend and guests or non-members are welcome. The Tuesday Talks are held at the City of Westminster Archives Centre, 10 St. Ann’s Street, London SW1P 2DE — just off Parliament Square. The Birthday celebration in November will be announced later in the year and invitations will be sent out separately by post.
