Thank you to everyone who came along to Stoke Newington History Talks #25—my latest evening of three talks at St. Matthias Hall was another full house. I opened the event by sharing some early results from my experiments using AI-generated imagery to reimagine aspects of local history. Rachel Kolsky followed with a rich exploration of the Jewish community in Stoke Newington, and we rounded off with Billy Thomas’ fascinating history of local telephone numbers. It was great to see so many familiar faces, and together we raised £626 for St Joseph’s Hospice. The next event will take place on 30th October, with tickets going on sale a month in advance.
