Festive Market: 8th December 2024

A Festive Market will take place on Devonshire Square and in Arbeit Studios on Sunday 8 December, 10am - 4pm. Curated by Arbeit Studios Green Lanes, the market will showcase and sell arts, crafts, objects and food from local makers, serve free mulled wine and feature live performances from a local choir. There is also the opportunity to pop into Arbeit Studios to visit the 'Line of Thought' exhibition by artist Harriette Meynell, commissioned through Arbeit's High Street Happenings Residency programme.

The Festive Market is the latest in a series of events led by Arbeit, Palmers Green Action Team and a variety of local partners, designed to activate Devonshire Road, ahead of its redesign and launch as 'Devonshire Square' in early Spring next year. At the market, the Journeys and Places team will share the latest designs for Devonshire Square, showing the creation of a new outdoor community and cultural space in the heart of Palmers Green.

Devonshire Square has been designed in collaboration with local communities and stakeholders, and responds to their aspirations and ambitions for Palmers Green. The project is aligned with the objectives of the 2022 Town Centre Action Plan which is to create a town centre that grows and greens through the involvement of its communities, diversifies the economy, promote cultural activity and improves the public realm.
