Handmade In Highgate, the Winter designer/maker fair
Friday 29 November – Sunday 1 December
Handmade In Highgate are the designer/artist/maker fairs held in the historic Highgate Literary and Scientific Institution. Carefully curated the fairs feature great makers from around the country – representing a variety of the highest quality contemporary craft in a wide price range.
The beautiful HLSI was founded in 1839 when it was set up as creative and social centre, promoting literature, the arts and science through the provision of a gallery space, members room and a library. Today the HLSI, a registered charity operates in a similar way and is generally closed to the public. The fair offers visitors an opportunity not just to see one of the best maker fairs in town, but also to visit the historic building.
This year the Winter Fair will feature up to 30 brilliant makers. As ever we have plants, shrubs and flowers on the outside of the building, a book sale in the historic library and wonderful home made cakes
and condiments.
Entrance is FREE and everyone is always welcome.
Handmade in Highgate will be open:
Friday 29 November: 5pm – 8pm
Saturday 30 November: 10am – 6pm
Sunday 1 December: 11am – 5pm

Members of the Highgate Watercolour Group look forward to welcoming visitors to the beautiful historic setting of Lauderdale House, where 20 artists will exhibit around 200 framed works on paper at their 2024 exhibition.
The exhibition across two gallery floors will include artwork from the group’s visits across north London, painting en plein air in Highgate, Camley Street Natural Park, Regent’s Canal, Stephens House & Gardens and Primrose Hill, plus landscapes from further afield.

Hilary gained her BA at Nottingham and her MA at the Painting School of the The Royal College of Art, London. She lives in London and works from her studio in Bethnal Green. Hilary is a member of The Printmakers Council and The East London Print Studio. Most of the prints on display are one-off monoprints which are multilayered images using materials such as lino, perspex and stencils to achieve the required layering and painterly depth.
Hilary’s work is in many public and private collections worldwide including the Victoria and Albert Museum and The Museum of London; The Zeiss Collection in Hamburg, Germany; and The L.V Prasad Eye Hospital in Hyderabad, India. She works in several mediums including acrylics, watercolours, printing and embroidery. This current exhibition includes includes new acrylic paintings and monoprints based on riverscapes in Bath and Oxford, worked up from watercolours and sketches made in-situ.
Other themes illustrated at the Lauderdale House Exhibition include sumptuous still lives, the Beauty of Nature, steamy jazz clubs and images of isolation with solitary figures viewing the outside world from mysterious interiors.
During the lockdown months, Hilary researched Greek Myths and was inspired by Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine who was taught his art by snakes. He is remembered to this day by the use of the serpent in the badges and arms of medical associations around the world. There is also on display a painting depicting the Three Greek Fates: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos who respectively spun, measured and finally cut the Thread of Life. A particularly appropriate concept during the Pandemic.
This exciting and eclectic exhibition at Lauderdale House is open daily from 6 February to 3 March 2025 [12-4 except 11-3 Wednesdays]
