artists to get to grips with the best ways to use images as a
story-telling tool. The course is also recommended for anyone who has
previously completed another Shoot Experience workshop and is looking
to take their skills to the next level.

 THE
APOLLO PROJECT
The Apollo Project is the work of a group of Herne Hill residents who
have resurrected and rejuvenated their defunct local video store into a
performance and arts venue. Throughout June, their unique festival will
include live music, film, art and even the odd bout of crazy
golf.

HIDDEN GARDENS OF THE
CITY
Summer in the city always seems far too short, so why not make more of
it this year with a tour round London's hidden gardens. Including the
oldest City park, a rooftop garden, secret courtyards and fountains,
you can uncover little gems of London you never knew existed. This
breath of fresh air is running until the end of July, so next time
there's a sunny day, we know exactly where we'll be basking!

way to Proud Central this month for a glimpse of Audrey Hepburn and
Marilyn Monroe at their best. Tying in with Audrey Hepburn’s
80th birthday, this stunning collection of the late Sam
Shaw’s work combines the most iconic photographs (yes,
including that image of Marilyn’s dress flying up
over the Subway grate) with never before seen shots of both leading
ladies. The exhibition has been specially put together for Proud
Galleries, so this is your only opportunity to see it.

A TRACE OF MY
EXISTENCE
30th April – 5th July 2009
A Trace of My Existence provides a very unusual show, as all of the
images were taken by children and young people who live in the
poorest areas of Colombia’s second largest city, Medellin.This
is the first European exhibition by Colombian photography collective
Click por los Barrios (Click for the Neighbourhoods), an organisation
set up by professional photographers to provide photographic training
in the most deprived areas of the city. The background of the project
combined with the arresting images on show gives a very poignant feel
to the exhibition.
