Come and play, sing, perform poetry, dance, or any other art form in solidarity with the people of Gaza at the foot of the Mound on Friday from 5 until midnight (or for as long as there are enough artists to fill the time).

Contact Jane Lewis if you would like to book a slot.

We plan to issue an open letter to Barack Obama and David Cameron. We want to appeal to the humanity of those in power to respond to this crisis in an intelligent, compassionate way that is not about business interests, arms deals, or winning votes.

We plan to go ahead whether or not there has been a ceasefire between now and then.
