InTransit Festival of Arts 2012

Welcome to InTRANSIT Festival of Arts 2012, an exciting, fresh and contemporary series of newly commissioned arts events

Each year InTRANSIT transforms the streets, parks and public places of Kensington and Chelsea into a riotous feast of culture and takes place between 13–27 July in Kensington and Chelsea..

Now in its sixth year, it again promises an interactive summer programme of artist-led walks, interventions, promenade performances and commissions that engage all ages.

The festival will explore the more hidden, unusual and overlooked aspects of the borough through the distinctive visions of an extraordinary range of artists working across art forms.

Dramatic street theatre, puppet shows, art installations and outdoor music and dance events will all be available free of charge to local residents and visitors to the borough.

In keeping with the spirit of the Olympics many of the events combine artistic creativity with physical activity such as parkour running, biking and walking. 

Some of the highlight events for this year’s festival will be a Portobello Road Arts Day, the Big Dance Bus on the King’s Road and a large-scale three dimensional illusionistic street painting by internationally renowned artist Edgar Mueller.
