A special artist talk to mark International Day of Action for Rivers.

Free, all welcome. Booking required.

Ben Nathan shares the story behind his year-long investigation into Bounds Green Brook – drawing on archival research, community water testing, and the connections forged with fellow river action groups.

Part map-making, part citizen science, part collective memory: a talk about making the invisible visible.
