Future of Waterlow Park @ Waterlow Park Centre
Apr 1 @ 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm

Camden have proposed setting up a Community Management Committee (consisting of local people and Camden representatives) to run Waterlow Park and its buildings on behalf of the Waterlow Park Trust.
Discussions have now been ongoing for over a year and involve the management of the Park, the renting of the lodges and the Park Centre, and the future of Lauderdale House.

This is an opportunity for anyone interested to come and get an update from the Working Party and Camden officers.
Please come and have your say

Join the Great British Spring Clean campaign @ Highgate Society
Mar 4 @ 10:15 am – 12:00 pm

Join the Great British Spring Clean campaign, Saturday 4 March 10.15 – 11.30 am

at the Highgate Society 10A South Grove, Highgate   

During the weekend of 3-5 March many people across the country will take part in the Great British Spring Clean campaign. Last year the campaign got 250,000 people outdoors, active and involved in clean up events.

The Highgate Society is organising one such event. We will supply protective gloves and rubbish bags. All we ask is that you bring yourself, some warm clothing and your enthusiasm. We will start with a short briefing at the Highgate Society 10A South Grove at 10.15 am and then leave for approximately an hour’s tidy up in and around Highgate village. Afterwards, if you have time,  we can warm up and enjoy a tea or coffee back at 10A until midday.

 

You’ll be joining an ever growing band of people who have had enough of other people’s litter, are willing to donate their time to help clear it up and want to see an end to littering. We’ll prepare a short report afterwards to highlight awareness of what we find.

 

For any questions please contact the organiser Andrew Sulston via the Highgate Society Website.

Feb 5 @ 7:00 pm – 8:15 pm

The 10th Annual Kyffin Williams Lecture: Conservation Challenges


Jenny Williamson, Easel Painting Conservator

Jenny Williamson has come to know Kyffin Williams’s pictures well through her work at galleries across Wales.  In this talk to mark Kyffin’s centenary year she will answer questions such as ‘what does an art conservator do?’ ‘what does she aim to achieve?’, ‘what techniques does she use?’ and ‘what pitfalls does she need to avoid?’

Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.
