#croydon2023

Getting creative yesterday and came up with this new design. Any Olympic fans will see the the connection but the Croydonians will see the Easter eggs too. . The sun based on stylized suns featured on 80s retro new wave albums was originally part of the @raye mural. The text forming the sun comes from her track 'Please don't touch. . We love the Croydon creative scene so tag a Croydon musician, artist sculptor, poet etc and we'll add their name as a bright ray of light forming this star. If anyone knows the significance of the hexagons and 2023 leave a comment. 🙏🏾 _________________________________________________________ #musiccity #croydonmusiccity #croydon2023 #LondonLive #raye #cronx #croydon #croydonist #eastcroydoncool #music #art #seeour7 #london #ldn #fashion #apparel #unisex #menswear #womenswear #tshirt #tee #top #tokyo1964 #summergames #trackandfield #retronewwave #80snewwave #cyberpunk #stayathome (at Croydon, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_6tsr8nM6h/?igshid=eubfgsp9wbao

Today we created a competition for a bit of light relief from the pandemic. For a while we've been posting music vids on a Tuesday from some of our favourite Croydon musicians but we'd like you to head to our stories and vote on your favourite rappers, spoken word artists, harpist etc. . . This is a two week tournament with the winner of the final going forward to be the focus of a new large mural we'll be creating through our @cdn_creative alter ego when this is all over. The best bit is you get to decide who it is and come see it when it's complete. . . This 1st round ends at 10pm tonight. Press the post notification to make sure you don't miss any of the rounds of voting. Thank you for taking part and hope you enjoy this. . @croydonist @beatsneats @lovecronx @croydonfm @yourcroydon @croydon_guardian @matthewsyard @eastcroydoncool @firstfloorspace @kreptandkonan @spotify @applemusic @tidal @eastlondonlines @timeoutlondon @kzmstudio @LondonLive _____________________________________________________ #eastcroydoncool #cronx #croydon #maybeLDNer #Croydon2023 #LondonBoroughOfCulture2023 #music #musiccity #stormzy #omarlyefook #kreptandkonan #competition #stayathome #coronavirus #uk #aauk #timeoutlondon #vote #fun #bored #londonpop #londonlife #ldn #lottieloveslondon #LondonLive (at Croydon, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-pMsBmHJhZ/?igshid=1jql5tn3ehue4

Never mind the concrete we're 'London Borough of Culture 2023'. Throw back to last weeks announcement for the 'Reimagining Croydons Subways' competition. . You can see all the entrants ideas via the website and hoardings next to the @croydonfairfield. If you like our idea of celebrating publicly with murals of many of the creative members of our borough who helped us win yesterday please follow the link in our bio and comment in the box under our idea. . #Croydon2023 #LondonBoroughOfCulture2023 #londonpop #londonlife #ldn #lottieloveslondon #timeoutlondon #stormzy #satchit #leonidescartes #sherikasherard #silvastone #LondonLive #maybeLDNer #londonpop #cronx #competition #streetart #graffiti #graffporn #subway #culture #EastCroydonCool #croydonist #yourcroydon #yourcroydonpics (at Croydon, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8gBw0tHaZ_/?igshid=1ae2naegk3fwc
