A small, friendly Christmas fair set in the beautiful surroundings of Highgate’s Literary & Scientific Institution offering a wide range of antiques and local crafts as well as items from Indie Books (publishers of From Syria With Love), culinary crafts from Kitchen Provisions, hand-made cards from Save Me I’m Wild, children’s clothing from Olive Pip Clothing plus jewellery and textiles from Antonia Graham.
For food-lovers, there will be a Cookbook Swap Shop where you can bring a cookbook from home and swap it for a new one, wine tasting and a literary-themed pop-up Cafe serving cakes, sweets and snacks such as Proust’s Madeleines, Geoffrey Chaucer’s Apple Pie, Walt Whitman’s Coffee Cake, Sausage Rolls from Harry Potter and Turkish Delight from The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. For children, there will be a Scavenger Hunt (with goodie bags from Rude Health’s new kids’ range) and a Craft Room where they can create hand-made Christmas cards themed around well known Christmas books.
Two cellist/jazz singers join forces to express their take on the world of standards, Latin, originals plus more.
Kate Shortt, cellist, singer songwriter, cabaret artists and comedienne is known for her avant garde improvisations and off the wall humour.
‘…Shortt’s solo took the honours. It was an unusual but impressive juxtaposition of overtones, atonality and snatches of delicate folk melodies…’ – Ian Mann, Jazz Reviewer
Rupert Gillett, multi instrumentalist, singer, composer and jazz bassist is also experienced in rock, blues and Eastern European styles.
‘…The stand out performance came from Rupert Gillett. Great cellist with comical side and songs that were instantly playing in your head…’ – Fiona Jarvis, Blue Badge Style
Sit back and enjoy this Cellicious ride from bebop to the blues and Bach again!
