A project organised by St Alfege Church, each year. Greenwich homes, shops, pubs, schools and community groups open their windows in a living Advent Calendar. A window “opens” every day between December 1st and 24th then stays open until January 2nd. This year’s theme is “Cast away the dreams of darkness“. Each window is prepared by volunteers using a range of media, from multimedia installations to paintings, models and stained glass. Seeing them all takes around three hours. You can find out further information about us and our church by logging onto www.st-alfege.org, by emailing adventwindows@hotmail.com or by ringing 020 8853 0687.
Email us, if you would like to take part next Advent, 2009, or if you are considering organising a similar event in your own parish or neighbourhood and we will give you some tips.
