Iain Lee v Radio @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 8 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Award winning radio and TV presenter Iain Lee picks some of the most hilarious moments from the history of the wireless.

Why did Nicky Campbell drop himself in it when talking about foxes? What do callers to local radio REALLY think about Mayor Boris Johnson and surely old lady professors know what you can and what you most definitely can’t say on the radio?

Despite appearing on radio (Five Live, Radio 4, XFM, BBC 3 Counties) and TV (The 11 O’Clock Show, This Morning, Big Brothers Bit On The Side) for over fifteen years, this is Iain’s first solo show. Should be a right old laugh.

Ssshhh! Circus Cabaret curated by Lucy Loves Circus @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 16 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Curated by Lucy Loves Circus

Doffing our cap to the traditions of vaudeville and the origins of circus and cabaret, acclaimed circus blogger Lu Cyrcus curates this very special night, led by Cirque du Soleil’s lead clown Sean Kempton. New and old combine in this evening of contemporary varieté, featuring everything from pole dancing to aerial rope and trapeze, where burlesque meets juggling kettle bells, with a dash of musical saw thrown in for good measure.

A night to tease, whisper and gasp – Ssshhh!

Culture, Carols and Canapes – 14th December @ Highgate Court
Dec 14 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Bellway hosts Highgate Art Exhibition to showcase local talent – local residents invited to enjoy some culture, carols and canapes

On Thursday 14th December, from 6.30pm until 9.00pm, local developer, Bellway Homes is hosting an exhibition of captivating, vibrant paintings by local artist, Michèle Janes – one of the UK’s leading original abstract artists. This free exhibition will take place at Bellway Homes’ prestigious new development on Bishops Road, Highgate, where local residents are invited to attend a festive evening of culture, canapés and carol singing.

The exhibition will be opened by Councillor Stephen Mann, Mayor of Haringey, and a selection of paintings will be available to purchase at the event – 10% of the proceeds will be donated to The Mayors’ Special Fund Appeal ‘Making a Difference for Mental Health’.

The exhibition will deliver an ‘abstract Christmas’ to leafy Highgate – a selection of paintings with vibrant colour as the dominant theme – showcasing Michèle’s love of London life and “the feline world big and small”. It will
feature a range of both paper framed and canvas art work. ‘Abstract freelance’ pieces will include colour integrations with a high gloss finish (on paper framed), combining minimalist and full on colour effects. This selection of
images are destined to brighten up the most mundane of environments, by adding a true WOW factor.

‘Abstract defined’ pieces will include colour integrations with a more delicate feel – allowing greater scope for interpretation – featured on canvass. These abstract images represent the artist’s emotion at any given time (Michèle’s work is often acclaimed for her honesty of expression).
