Hackney Tours

Hackney Tours πŸ’š culture jam. Walking artist-led
local adventures, conversations & connection. Tours aim to entertain, educate and inspire - and ask questions.

As featured in the Guardian newspaper and seen at Stokey Lit Fest and Hackney WickED etc, we offer alternative tours of Hackney & surrounds. From social history to street art, revolutionaries to reformers - we'll show you another side of this fascinating borough in places as different as Abney Park Cemetery and Hackney Wick. We also offer radical and feminist walks of Stoke Newington. See http://w

ww.hackneytours.com for more information & blog. Book on a regular fixed-time tour, or hire Hackney Tours. We've also spoken at art/urban symposia Documenta (Kassel, Germany) and This Is Not A Gateway (TINAG, London) on the subject of artists as agents of gentrification. Academics/groups welcome.

A fantastic opportunity to be part of a simple but beautiful act of public art this Saturday if you believe   matter.

A fantastic opportunity to be part of a simple but beautiful act of public art this Saturday if you believe matter.

Arts on the Green and New Unity are delighted to welcome a collective to the Newington Green Meeting House for a co-recital of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. You’re invited to participate by reading part of the Declaration.

https://monicaross.org/artworks/co-reciting.html

See their message below. You can find out more, and sign up to participate, here.

An Act of Memory is inspired by Anniversary – an act of memory by Monica Ross and collaborators.

If you are joining us as a member of the audience simply turn up at New Unity from 3pm. No booking is required and refreshments will be served. If you would like to join Robert as a co-recitor of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights then please read on for more information or sign up here.

New Unity is a radically inclusive community dedicated to love and justice. Whoever you are, wherever you’re from, whatever you look like, whoever you love, however you identify, and whatever your age – you are welcome.

Whether you are coming as a co-recitor or a witness to the recitation, we look forward to seeing you on 10th January.

With thanks,

The Monica Ross Archive and friends

War, populism, fake news and a coming technological revolution? That's the dark side of Victorian London. What can it tell us about today? Join us.

In this historical tour just before dark, we’ll go back in time to the era of the Gothic novel. How do fears over populism, technological change and fake news connect with today?
