🐝 Insect Week will take place from 22 to 28 June. 🐝
Come along for this special Storytime to celebrate the wonderful world of insects!
Step into a world of indigo fabric, rhythmic stitching, and quiet joy at our Sashiko Workshop - an immersive experience inspired by the timeless Japanese tradition of Sashiko.
Sashiko, meaning "little stabs" transforms simple running stitches into mesmerising geometric patterns. As you trace classic motifs - waves, hempleaves, interlocking circles - you begin to see how repetition becomes art.
Sashiko is also more than embroidery, it's a moving meditation. The steady rhythm of stitching slows your breathing, softens your shoulders and the simple repetition quiets the mind, leaving space for calm, clarity and creative flow.
No experience required, just curiosity, whether you are a seasoned maker or picking up a needle for the first time, you will discover the quiet thrill of watching patterns emerge beneath your hands.
On 22nd June 1948, 492 Caribbean people came to the UK on the Empire Windrush ship.Join us to celebrate this event and honour the British Afro-Caribbean culture and community at Muswell Hill Library. Make your own ship and decorate it however you want. Take it home and enjoy it!

Storytime is celebrating Paddington’s Birthday. Come along to listen to fun stories from our picture-book collection – including some that are all about Paddington Bear.
You might also get some good ideas about the type of storybooks you want to borrow and read at home.
Table Top Role-Playing Games (TTRPGs) are social games of collaborative storytelling. Players take the role of a character within a story created by the group - often with direction by a Games Master.
In this session we will be playing Grant Howitt's 'Honey Heist': in this suprisingly successful one-page role-playing game you play a bear struggling between the desire to undertake a cunning honey-theft plan and the desire to be a BEAR! This simple and easy game is great fun for begginers and veterans alike.
Whether you've never played TTRPGs before, or you've been playing for years, join us and have fun crafting your story!
