Hold the phone! We have just stumbled across what may be our fave project of the year: The Market Estate Project. 75 artists have been let loose on a 1960s housing estate in London that has been scheduled for demolition. And as the bulldozers rev their engines, the public are invited in to catch a fleeting glimpse of what these artists have created.
For one day only (Saturday March 6), Londoners can take a tour through of the 66 site-specific projects across 20 vacant flats of Market Estate. It breaks our heart to know that in a matter of days these paintings, sculptures and installations will be nothing more than rubble, but that’s all the more reason to see it while you can.
The Market Estate Project is on view Saturday March 6 from 2pm-10pm only.

London fans of Brooklyn-based MEN should be stoked at news the band will perform gigs at the Hoxton Bar & Grill on January 18th and Madame JoJo's on January 19th.
MEN will hit London armed with fresh material and their usual dance your ass off sound – a perfect antidote to London’s January blues. Tickets available from TicketWeb.

Unleashing the talents of closet musos on Sydney earlier this year, the Play Me I’m Yours street piano spectacular is taking London by storm for the next fortnight.
Sing London and the City of London Festival have offered up 30 pianos for the joyous tinkling of the people, in parks, train stations and an array of other public areas. Anyone can approach the keys, but if you’d prefer to enjoy the talents of others, rather than marvel the crowds with a rendition of Chopsticks, check out the pile of free events on offer here. There’s everything from collaborations with a kazoo orchestra, to performances by the London Symphony Orchestra.
Be quick though, the pianos are only in town until July 13; after that they’ll be donated to local schools and community groups.
