local happenings
Here's what's going on in and around Crouch End
Not for the faint-hearted, this walk is hosted by local walking tour guide Caroline Clayton and ghost story writer Will Maclean. Over the course of two hours, you'll hear tales of poltergeists and zombies, trace the footsteps of the ‘master of horror’ himself, Stephen King, explore the legend of the Highgate Vampire, and discover why Crouch End is the horror capital of London, and possibly the world!
Whether you're a skeptic or a true believer, this ghost walk promises to be a night to remember.
(Please note, some sections of this walk are hilly and one might be a bit muddy).
Not suitable for children.
The next Hornsey Library Friends Meet the Author event is now booking at FOHLNovember.eventbrite.co.uk Renowned feminist lawyer (and local resident) Harriet Wistrich will be in conversation about her book Sister in Law, with Dame Vera Baird, former Victims Commissioner (and also local resident). The date (24 November) is the eve of the annual International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women - so what better time to discuss the ongoing challenges.
DO YOU KNOW ANYBODY who would be interested in making connections and friendships?
CREATIVE CONNECTIONS is an organisation run by Kiki Machado and Gabriela Solano whose FREE weekly workshops aim to bring people of the local community together, using art and movement activities as a way of:
** Generating conversations about what the local area has to offer and how to get involved with various activities.
** Getting to know and network with other people who live and work in the area.
** Understanding each other's differences and similarities whatever your age, culture or background.
The workshops are part of the WARM WELCOME project by Haringey Council.
