The Highgate Watercolour Group look forward to welcoming their visitors, both local and from further afield, and take great pleasure in presenting their work in this beautiful historic house.
This year they will have the cream of their output on display, beautifully framed and reasonably priced. Nearly all members are represented, so there is great variety and hopefully something for everyone.
In August, the Highgate Watercolour Group painting activities moved out of 10A South Grove, where they usually work, enabling them to exploit the city more widely. Look out for paintings of Omved Gardens in Highgate, views of Hampstead and the Heath, as well as other north London hotspots. And of course one of their favourite venues is Waterlow Park and Lauderdale House itself.
Everyone is welcome to the private view on Wednesday 11th October from 7.30 pm to 9.30pm – come meet the artists and see the work first!
The gallery is generally open:
- Monday – Tuesday : 12pm to 4pm
- Wednesday : 11am to 3pm
- Thursday – Sunday : 12pm to 4pm
Please note that the gallery hours may change or the gallery may close at short notice due to private events. To avoid disappointment, please check our most up-to-date opening hours by clicking here or calling us on 020 8348 8716 the day before your visit.

Weds 29 Nov waterways: details to book to follow
Musicians from the “Icons of Greek music” project come together once again to perform a concert of music by three of Greece’s most loved and iconic composers: Mikis Theodorakis, Manos Hadjidakis and Stavros Xarhakos.
There is not a household in Greece that does not have their beautiful melodies colouring their lives. The folk songs have become classics, almost like anthems. They can be heard being played by a small duo in the smallest taverna to the biggest orchestra in the greatest concert halls around the world and they touch everybody in their own personal way…they are songs and lyrics which wherever we are in life we can relate to.
Join us for an afternoon of lyrical melodies, pulsating rhythms and poetic lyrics that reach into the soul of Greece.
Performers:
Maria Tsirodimitri – voice, guitar
Pavlos Carvalho – cello, bouzouki, vocals
Manolis Taouxis – double bass, bouzouki, vocals
George Tsolakis – voice, guitar

With so much coverage being given to the troubles in Gaza and the West Bank many people may wonder whether a country in the Middle East is a suitable destination for this year’s holiday. Be assured the principal travel companies continue to operate tours to Jordan as normal, considering it as a wholly safe destination and, as Richard Webber and Jane Campbell will hope to show, even a short visit will expose you to the remains of many different civilisations and a variety of stunning desert landscapes in a hassle-free environment largely undiscovered by mass tourism
