Guerrilla Gardening
Apr 20 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

Our Guerrilla Gardening group has been busy with planning for 2024 since our evening workshop in November. Work has included a walk-about through the N6 area to survey 16 potential sites for our activities and developing a map with notes, so that we can assign actions (even if just monitoring) to each site.

We are now looking for people that can join us to grow this initiative. If you can help out at a gardening event (site clearing, pruning, planting), or might be interested in becoming a ‘champion’ for a particular site near you that needs care, or you simply want to know more, please do get in touch via the contact form on the website or by direct email to: infrastructure@highgatesociety.com. A member of the team will be in touch. You can also sign up to our occasional Guerrilla Gardening newsletter.

Meanwhile, the dates for gardening events have been fixed – see below – so do ‘save the date’ in your diary, if you are interested. We will provide further information as to the event activity and location, each month. Please note, some are evening events and they are not only Saturdays!

Saturday 23 March 10–12 noon

Art Exhibition: “Brush, Lens, Life” by Mika Hadar @ Lauderdale House
May 1 @ 10:00 am – 5:00 pm

Art Exhibition: “Brush, Lens, Life” by Mika Hadar

1st May – 27th May 2024

This exhibition focuses on periods of serene contemplation in nature, fostering opportunities for the senses and the heart to expand and encounter moments of awe.

Mika is a London-based photographer, painter, and poet, integrating the objective lens of photography with the expressive strokes of a painter’s brush.

Their work is defined by its poetic, serene, and contemplative essence.

They view their art as ‘Visual Poetry’, where each medium- photography, painting, and poetry—expresses their inner landscape.

Mika explores the intimate connection between the observer and the observed through their lens. In painting, they respond to the view with their inner feelings and sensations, often blending brush and lens by painting over printed photographs, thereby recreating them with a subjective perspective.

Mika’s approach to photography and painting transcends mere documentation; it seeks to encapsulate the inherent mystery and longing in every moment. Their ultimate goal is to create an immersive experience that surpasses the visible realm, inviting others to share moments of wonder and introspection.

Come see Mika Hadar’s work at Lauderdale House during the month of May (1st – 27th). The exhibition is free and doesn’t require a ticket, but the gallery opening times change daily – please check on www.lauderdalehouse.org.uk or call 020 8348 8716 when planning your visit.

Art Exhibition: “Brush, Lens, Life” by Mika Hadar

1st May – 27th May 2024

This exhibition focuses on periods of serene contemplation in nature, fostering opportunities for the senses and the heart to expand and encounter moments of awe.

Mika is a London-based photographer, painter, and poet, integrating the objective lens of photography with the expressive strokes of a painter’s brush.

Their work is defined by its poetic, serene, and contemplative essence.

They view their art as ‘Visual Poetry’, where each medium- photography, painting, and poetry—expresses their inner landscape.

Mika explores the intimate connection between the observer and the observed through their lens. In painting, they respond to the view with their inner feelings and sensations, often blending brush and lens by painting over printed photographs, thereby recreating them with a subjective perspective.

Mika’s approach to photography and painting transcends mere documentation; it seeks to encapsulate the inherent mystery and longing in every moment. Their ultimate goal is to create an immersive experience that surpasses the visible realm, inviting others to share moments of wonder and introspection.

Come see Mika Hadar’s work at Lauderdale House during the month of May (1st – 27th). The exhibition is free and doesn’t require a ticket, but the gallery opening times change daily – please check on www.lauderdalehouse.org.uk or call 020 8348 8716 when planning your visit.

Jazz on the Tea Lawn: Carol Grimes and Friends @ Lauderdale House
May 13 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Jazz on the Tea Lawn: Carol Grimes and Friends

Carol Grimes is back! Join us on the Tea Lawn for a very special edition of Jazz in the House…

Carol Grimes is a British singer, songwriter, poet and author, a towering presence in the UK music scene; from busking in the streets as a teenager, singing blues and Jazz, to touring internationally with the contemporary classical group The Shout and her two of her solo albums in Nashville and Memphis  it is safe to say Carol is a truly genre-busting artist. Having turned to jazz and blues, her music embraces drama, love – music for night people.

Programmed by Blow the Fuse, who also feature on guitar (Deirdre Cartwright) and bass (Alison Rayner)!

Performers

Carol Grimes – Vocals

Steve Lodder – Piano

Deirdre Cartwright – Guitar

Alison Rayner – Bass

Winston Clifford – Drums

Booking information

This performance will take place on the Tea Lawn at the back of Lauderdale House.

If you would like to sit together, please book together, as this allows us to assign each booking a socially distanced space.

Chairs will not be provided so please bring either a picnic blanket or a chair to make yourself comfortable. Audience members with chairs will be seated behind those on the ground to make sure that everyone has a good view. If you are booking as a group, the whole group will need to be on chairs or on blankets, rather than a mixture of the two.

We have a limited number of picnic tables and benches available as group tickets – book these early to avoid disappointment.

If you have a disability or any special requirements please get in touch with us so that we can best accommodate you.

 

Weather

The performance will continue regardless of the weather unless unsafe. Please plan for all eventualities and remember to bring a waterproof layer and a warm jumper. We prefer waterproofs to umbrellas because umbrellas can obstruct views. Don’t forget that if you are on a blanket the ground may be wet so make sure you have a blanket with a waterproof side or bring a plastic sheet. There are no refunds for shows cancelled due to the weather.

 

Food and Drink

The cafe/bar will be open selling light snacks and drinks before the performance starts and during the interval.

You are also welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy on the Tea Lawn as you watch the performance.
