WIMBLEDON COMMON IN SOUTH LONDON HAS A FAIR EVERY JUNE

THE ANNUAL WIMBLEDON GUILD VILLAGE FAIR ON SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 2015


A sketch of Savills booth, Wimbledon Guild Fair on Wimbledon Common

The Wimbledon weather was great and the Fair was crowded.  There was a funfair too, across the Rushmere pond, and a Punch and Judy performance, which was given by the same presenter as that which I sketched at the Merton Park Church Fair - see my previous post.  Merton Park Church Fair, Punch and Judy sketch

I was lucky to find a spot to sit and draw the Savills booth.  Savills is a successful and wide ranging estate agents in the UK with offices in Wimbledon.  It was very refreshing to be offered a glass of cool prosecco too.  The sketch shows a cross section of the many people, including children, plus dogs, which came and went, enjoying the hospitality.
