<\/p>\nFrom 12 to 20 September 2026, the Polish Social and Cultural Association in London will host the \u20181st Festival of Polish Culture in the British Isles: Polish, Very Polish\u2019.<\/p>\n
This is the perfect opportunity for Polish poets and artists living in the UK to showcase their work to a wider audience.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Polish Social and Cultural Association in London, together with the Pomys\u0142odalnia Foundation, invites you to a series of unique cultural events, which will be organised thanks to funding secured from the Senate Chancellery as part of the \u2018Senate-Polonia 2026\u2019 competition. We will be presenting an interdisciplinary festival showcasing the uniqueness and multifaceted nature of Polish culture in the UK. The festival\u2019s main themes relate to the patrons of 2026 \u2013 Andrzej Wajda and the 100th anniversary of Gdynia.
\nThe project will include: a retrospective of Andrzej Wajda\u2019s films at the POSK Cinema, a theatre showcase of small-scale stage productions, choreography and vocal workshops, an exhibition and catalogue entitled \u2018Polish Art in the British Isles\u2019, a poetry anthology and a poetry slam competition. Radio POSK will present a radio play based on Joseph Conrad\u2019s \u2018Lord Jim\u2019.<\/p>\n
