At a Death Cafe, people, often strangers, gather to eat cake , drink tea and discuss death... to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives.
Death Cafe is a group discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session.
World Ocean Day, held annually on 8 June, is a global celebration to appreciate, protect, and learn about our blue planet. A birthday for the ocean! Mark the date by creating your own 3D Ocean.

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.
This year, to celebrate Butterfly Education and Awareness Day (BEAD), we are inviting your little ones to paint their own butterfly. We would like to highlight the ecological importance of butterfilies and the need for their conservation
Insect Week is 23-29 June 2025. It was created by the Royal Entomological Society, so that adults and children can use the event to learn more about insects, their habitats and the marvellous things they do for our ecosystem. Beetles are a group of insects, their front wings have hardened wing-cases, which distinguishes them from many other insects. They can be found in the driest of deserts and the wettest of tropical rainforests! Around 40% of the UK's insects are beetles! Celebrate Insect Week with us at Muswell Hill Library by making your very own 3D Beetle Bug! Colour it, cut it out, stick it together and have fun making it fly around!
