Notting Hill Silents


Notting Hill Silents presents silent films accompanied by music performed on the restored organ at St John's Notting Hill. Originally shown as part of the St John's Organ Project, these screenings continue after project completion.

They are popular events which have mostly sold out previously. This is a volunteer-run series, with all profits  go to tuning and maintaining the restored organ at St John's Notting Hill and to putting on more silent film and organ events in the church. St John's Notting Hill is a registered charity, number 1131808.
