Sat 19 Sept – Walthamstow Way – Artists, Markets and Murals Walking Tour
Come and join Good Life Tours for a wonderful walking tour of the launch of the new ‘Walthamstow Way’ – from Wood St, through Ravenscroft Estate, to Walthamstow Village and Central, meeting artists, creatives, and small businesses over 2.5 hours.

Time: 10am or 2pm
Meeting point: Wood St station, Walthamstow, London
End point: Walthamstow Central station
We’ll visit some incredible local spots and meet a range of creative people in and around Walthamstow Village and Wood Street, so this is more than just a walking tour – it will be an inspiring cultural tour.
We’ll hear the stories behind murals and mosaics, and a special curator’s talk at the ‘Making of Mothers’ exhibition in the cutest, tiniest, Garage Gallery .
Book early for a discount on the standard ticket – £25 (cheaper for seniors and young people. There’s no low income option with this booking system, so if that’s you, just click ‘senior’).
Photo: Laura Villares-House, curator of ‘Making of Mothers’ will give us a unique insight into the exhibition on the tour.

July’s Patterns of nature tour
This nature walk from Walthamstow to Leyton along the River Lea intertwined art with the beauty and biodiversity of the Walthamstow, Hackney and Leyton Marshes.
The walk goes from St James St in Walthamstow to Leyton, via the Victorian filterbeds, accompanied by a nature-focused artist, ending at a beautiful, hidden community art gallery, Art Works East.
This is a perfect half day out for art lovers and nature fans alike and a unique opportunity to connect, chat, and enjoy some amazing creativity up close! We’ll definitely do it again.
