A pop of colour 🤩 This stunning Amerine hybrid — a beautiful cross between an Amaryllis and a Nerine — brings the best of both worlds. Bold, graceful, and full of life.

IRIE! dance theatre worked with Invisible Palace to bring to life uncomfortable histories linked to the Upper Terrace in Crystal Palace Park. Their work is beautiful, powerful and moving - this is not to be missed! www.broadwaytheatre.org.uk/events/irie-...

IRIE! dance theatre present: KEHÃ SEEBII - Broadway Theatre

In a world that often feels hurried and fragmented, Kehã Seebii offers a moment of stillness and reflection – a prayer of love and compassion for the ancestors and descendants.

It’s all happening on the terraces! For statues representing Turkey and Sheffield who have been here since 1854 this must be quite a change. Dante joined a little later, but he too finds himself surrounded by scaffolding and repair work.

Today after our gardening session, we shared a lovely treat. Lucrezia from Bici and Baci used figs harvested by our volunteers to make jam and this delicious cake. A simple and sweet way to enjoy the fruits of our work together.
