On 7th and 8th June, artists, designers and craftspeople will open their studios to the public and show work on high streets in shops and cafes around Southgate and Palmers Green as part of the Open Studios and Art Trail - now in its third year.

There is a huge variety of work this year. Handmade baskets, furniture and sculpture will be on show as well as knitwear, lighting, textiles and millinery plus fine art, ceramics, glass and leatherwear.

Additionally there will be free workshops for adults and children to try their hand at art and craft - see website for more info.

This is a really good opportunity to connect with artistic and creative people in the local area. The Trail Guide is now available - you can pick it up in Palmers Green shops - or download an online version
