When: Tuesday 6th October, 4-5pm

What's it about? Join our friends from The Charterhouse on Zoom, for a special "Talking Heads" workshop. 

The portraits will inspire conversation and you'll be able to take part in a short, fun writing activity where we will all describe ourselves and get a chance to learn a little about each other.

The Charterhouse team will also give you an insight into the history of the building (which has been around since 14th century) and let you know how your voices could form part of the history of the Charterhouse in their current Soundscape project.

Please bring along marker pens/felt tips/writing pens or pencils and some white paper. If you wish, please cut out a picture frame before the workshop from a cereal box or other cardboard, which can frame your face like a portrait. This is optional, so please don’t worry!

Who's it for? All adults are welcome!  It's a for those who are interested in meeting with others, and finding out more about story telling and Islington's history. It's also a celebration for Silver Sunday earlier during the week.

See the Charterhouse website for more info about their wonderful almshouse, garden & history:
