The weird and wonderful World of Mushrooms can teach us much about ourselves – and the world we live in. Waltham Forest Fungus Fortnight will celebrate the Fungal Kingdom/Queendom through art, music, and hands-on education, connecting our community with nature – and each other.
Mushrooms are mysterious. They capture our imagination like no other organisms. Perceived as life-giving, mind-blowing and deadly, they simultaneously inspire fear, wonder, and confusion. Against the odds, Fungi thrive in urban landscapes like East London too.
Join us to get to know our Fungal Neighbours in Waltham Forest with mushroom-inspired events including:
Remember, Don’t Fear the Fungus!
This event will take place in locations across Waltham Forest. More details on venues coming soon.
