Stuck In The 70s

About: Are you stuck in the 70s? Feel good in flares? Like to walk tall on platform boots? Look glam in glitter? Then you need to come down to Teddington Constitutional Club this weekend.

Hosts Markus and the one-and-only Disco Sue will be on hand to take you right back to yesteryear, with around 300 vinyl to choose from each night.

Add in reasonably-priced drinks and £5 tickets, and you have yourself quite the night lined up!

"Dressing up not essential but positively encouraged," say the organisers.

When: Saturday 3 August @ 7:30pm.

Where: Teddington Constitutional Club, 5 Stanley Road, Teddington, TW11 8TP.

Price: £5 entry.

Introduction to Sun Printing: Cyanotype

About: Following on from our roundup of short courses from Landmark Arts Centre is this one-day 'sun printing course'.

Using cyanotype, an old photography printing process, students will be able to create otherworldly blue prints using just the sun, creating a striking silhouette on the page.

With the expert guidance of artist, designer, maker, and multi-disciplinary creative tutor Nicolene Grigg, alongside all the equipment being provided, there's no excuse not to give it a go this weekend!

When: Friday 2 August @ 10am to 4pm.

Where: Art Studio, Landmark Arts Centre, Ferry Road, Teddington, TW11 9NN.

Price: £70

Tracy Ray & The Mojos

About: Well-loved Teddington jazz venue The Wharf Bar & Grill has another weekend of superb music lined up for locals.

Four-piece band The Mojos have played with many major artists including Van Morrison, Georgie Fame, Jerry Lee Lewis, James Hunter, Jerry Dammers, Chris Farlowe, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck to name a few.

Of course, accompanying the group will be The Wharf itself, offering its high-quality dining and bar experience throughout the day.

When: Sunday 4 August @ 1:30pm.

Where: The Wharf Bar & Grill, 22 Manor Road, Teddington, TW11 8BG.
