Maggie Jennings: Verdance at the Highgate Gallery
These vibrant drawings and paintings from nature are active celebrations of the energy and urgency of life, and life’s transformation and decay. They develop themes from Jennings successful show at Highgate Gallery 5 years ago. The shock of Covid lockdown caused the artist to experience both claustrophobia and a liberating freedom from established routine. She spent time sketching her garden’s wild proliferation; the mass and tangle of plant growth studied up-close giving rise to a wealth of visual information, resulting in some paintings being worked like tapestry. These shown alongside her delicate prints of individual plant studies.
Wednesdays to Fridays 13:00-17:00, Saturdays 11:00-16:00 Sundays 11:00-17:00, Mondays & Tuesdays Closed

A ‘Night at the Museum’ Event
‘Wren before Wren’
by
Rory Coonan
Monday 26 June in the Highgate School Library at 7 pm
A lecture to celebrate Sir Christopher Wren’s tercentenary by Rory Coonan that will focus on Wren’s extraordinary but little-known contributions to the scientific revolution, from his youth at Wadham in 1640 until his emergence much later as our greatest architect.
Rory Coonan is a graduate of Wadham College, Oxford, and of the Royal College of Art. He is a former director of architecture at the Arts Council of Great Britain, and an honorary fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects.
The class is suitable for beginners and is friendly and inclusive. Style is Hatha yoga with various influences – gentle, but still delivering strength and flexibility.

Laura Jurd and Corrie Dick (of the Mercury Prize-nominated band Dinosaur) join Liam Noble and Ruth Goller for a stunning evening of Jazz in the House!
Composer-performer Laura Jurd’s distinct voice as an improvising trumpet player is at the heart of everything she creates. Her music celebrates and innovates the rich traditions of jazz and folk music, whilst often reflecting her love of The Beatles and Stravinsky to name two notable influences. Her compositions dig into something primal, earthy and human, whilst taking twists and turns that both invite surprise and evoke the inevitable.
Performers:
Laura Jurd – Trumpet
Liam Noble – Piano
Ruth Goller – Bass
Corrie Dick – Drums
Tickets:
Standard £15.50
Unwaged Concession £12.50
(This concession applies to guests with disabilities and those not in work. There are no senior concessions for Jazz in the House)
Under 35s Concession £8
Limited numbers!
Doors open at 7:30pm
Free one to one help with phone, tablet and computer.

Describing Landscape
7 – 20 July

Lines, patterns and slabs of colour give emotional force to these works, which go beyond describing landscape to describing “a never ending orchestration of life force”.
A powerful show which includes graphite drawings, lino cuts, etchings and pastels.
Gallery open:
Weds – Fri: 13.00 – 17.00
Saturday: 11.00 – 16.00
