Songhaven’s free summer concert is on Saturday 16 July, 3-4pm – songs from stage and screen performed by professional classically-trained artists.

The Friends are sponsoring this concert so please come along and enjoy the music and the good weather too. Last year’s Songhaven concerts were a great success and this year’s will be just as good. We will put out some chairs but please bring your own as well, if you can.

Then there’s another event in the Gardens which you may see happening and want to know about. The Wellcome Collection have organised a ticketed 40 minute interactive journey through the Gardens to encourage people to reimagine their relationship with the natural world. It’s on July 21-23 and is explained here – https://wellcomecollection.org/events/YrCQkxEAACEAFQaY. Unfortunately, it’s already fully booked but an Eventbrite waiting list has been set up and there might be cancellations. So try the waiting list if you’re interested in attending this event.
