FREE ENTRY. John Constable’s love of Hampstead and the Heath is largely overlooked but, as the second centenary of his first visit here approaches, this six month exhibition will redress the balance, thanks to a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. We will be showing seven of Constable’s original works on loan from the Victoria and Albert Museum, just steps from the breathtaking views that inspired them. This will be a rare opportunity to see these iconic pieces in their natural home. Heard about our Constable Scramble to riase funds for the House? Well we made it back and it's not too late to donate!

Venue: Burgh House, New End Square NW3. This Constable display showcases complementary images from our own colletion. It explores other artists who took Hampstead Heath as inspiration.

Djerba is a unique island, off the Tunisian-Libyan coast, in which 1,200 Jews live in harmony with an Arab-Muslim community of 100,000 for centuries. They speak Hebrew to each other, tune to the Israeli radio every day, have modern Israeli names, and visit relatives in Israel on a regular basis.

Conscientious objection to conscription and ‘draft dodging’ as well as the rights and wrongs of occupation and settlements have become explosive issues for all shades of Israel’s political spectrum. For this stimulating book, David Ranan held interviews with Israelis aged between eighteen and thirty.
