Newsletter from ‘Wildways Project Team’ – Meet The Artists & Exhibition at Hale End Library 4th September

Venue: Hale End Library, Castle Ave, London E4 9QD, UK

Exhibition opening event: ‘Meet the artists’: Friday 4 September, 4 to 7pm. RSVP here

Following a Field Trip for Artists in June, organised by Artillery, 23 artists have taken a unique approach to making new work inspired by the Ching. Their process and resulting work are united by curiosity and care of the river habitat.

Events happening at the library during the exhibition – talks, tours, walks, performances. Keep an eye on the Artillery web page for more information and library opening hours.

From September through November, The Conservation Volunteers are running regular Biodiversity Action Team volunteering sessions at Wadham Meadow. The first of these will be on Tuesday 22nd September.
These are open to everyone aged 18 and over, no experience required. Activities include bulb planting, installing a new chestnut fence and creating a natural footpath.

Dates and details are available here on the Wildways webpage in the ‘Key Dates’ section.
