Holloway - Past, Present and Future
As part of our 150th anniversary celebrations, on Friday 24th Sept at 7.30pm in the church, leaders in our local community will present a special event looking at how the parish has changed over the past 150 years and how it might change in the future - with our help. Speakers include Councillor Andy Hull, vice chairman of the Islington Fairness Commission.
Drawing Room - Autumn Term
This term artist in residence Rob Pepper will be running the Drawing Room as part of the St Luke's Breathing Space programme. It will be on Wednesday nights from 7 - 9pm. The focus will be on longer poses for those with some experience of drawing. Rob will be there offering advice and guidance but the idea of the classes are to take a more self directed approach.
The cost of the classes will be £110 for the 10 weeks, this will include some materials. If you want to drop in for the odd session that may be possible but please email Rob first to see what the availability is for that week and to discuss materials.
