We’re very excited that the Tooting Bec Lido Art Calendar and Art Sale fundraising events return this November. 

The calendar artworks have now been selected and the 2027 Lido Art Calendar is in production.

Twelve beautiful pictures inspired by our wonderful local outdoor swimming pool, Tooting Bec Lido. Every month is a delight making it the perfect gift for all lovers of open water swimming and lidos.
