''Prelude' is calling all artists working in painting, drawing, photography, sculpture and mixed media, whose innovative work seeks to engage and captivate.

At the end of 2005, the Spitalfields regeneration programme was completed. Spitalfields is no longer considered just a Sunday destination it has evolved into one of London's favourite and most vibrant areas.

In 2008 the Prelude monthly art events run over the first Fri, Sat and Sun of each month (excluding August), and for four six days events inc the weekends in December. All events sell out at least six months in advance, so please plan ahead to avoid disappointment.

The Spitalfields regeneration resulted in the creation of two new public spaces, one of which hosts Prelude art events in a busy public space. The area also hosts a public art programme, an events programme, and a selection of carefully selected new retailers and restaurants.

Prelude events represents a good opportunity for artists to show and sell work to both the corporate, local and tourist markets.
