Meditation with Maryam
11am. Donations requested
Meditation circle
Join Maryam for a gentle guided grounding meditation followed by tea and sharing circle. The aim is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for anyone with any experience and beliefs to feel calm and de-stress and maybe try something new.
The meditation is about 20 minutes and the circle after will provide an opportunity for sharing and discussion.

This month’s meditation includes a Guided Manifestation Journey to usher you towards reaching your desired goal followed by Textile Charm Making to anchor the high vibration energies of the journey and your intention into your physical world.

Maryam Sandjari Hashemi is a multidisciplinary artist based in Haringey. She has also been working as a spiritual coach for over a decade using different modalities. Building communities is part of her practice and she believes in the chaos of current days creating a regular grounding space and an inclusive supportive community is crucial .

COMEDY CLUB SPECIAL - EDINBURGH PREVIEW
Doors 7pm, start 7.30pm.

I’m very excited to announce that for June’s All Good Comedy we’re trying something a little different.

Instead of our usual mixed bill, we’re hosting an Edinburgh Fringe preview: Andy Field — Giddy Up. Known for his silly and off beat humour “Giddy Up” is Andy’s exploration of his life and career as he wonders whether missed opportunities are starting to feel like they outnumber the successes and a question hangs in the air, stubbornly growing with each passing birthday, ‘have I wasted my life?
For an inkling into Andy’s humour check out his A-Z guides to life on instagram and his podcast.

And possibly even more excitingly we have support from the brilliantly intense and hilarious Jordan Brookes, winner of the Edinburgh Comedy Award 2019 (one of the most prestigious honours in live comedy) and one of Mike (host of All Good Comedy)’s favourite comedians of all time opening the show with a blend of old and new material.

I’d highly recommend booking in advance as this will be a special show.

There will be a bar on the night. 16+ only. All under 18s to be accompanied by an adult.

Art: DRAWING GREEN LANES by Martin H***e
Free.

This month in our gallery: a series of drawings by Martin H***e.

Martin H***e is an artist based in Turnpike Lane, his work focuses on the landscape of Haringey. He is particularly interested in elements of text which form the visual language of the urban landscape. His work looks at the daily encounters with the people we pass on the street.

Working primarily within drawing, with ink pens but also using acrylic, gouache and spray paint, Martin mixes these together in multi-layered drawings.

His current project is Drawing Green Lanes, the one-mile section of the road between Haringey Green Lanes Station and Turnpike Lane underground station, with the aim of making a series of drawings that includes every shop along this one-mile section of the road. There are a lot of drawings still to be made.

Saturday 30 May & Sunday 31 May from 1pm

On Saturday and Sunday in May we will be opening the bar at 1pm so you can enjoy a drink and we will be open to late (at least 10pm) so you’ll have plenty of time to browse books and maybe pick up a gem. Or you can just relax, chat and chill with friends in spaces around the shop or in our garden.

Saturday has an extra special twist. We are inviting visitors to make use of our library of board games. Why not settle down in a seat and play a few rounds of something whilst sipping on a nice cool drink? Use of the games is completely free.

All under 18s to be accompanied by an adult from 1pm.
