Scorched Earth, Green Shoots: Kate Bailey exhibits with Terry McGinity at Golders Green Meeting

‘Some stayed for hours.’

by Kate Bailey 2nd January 2026

Inspired by an Eva Koch Scholarship earlier in the year, towards the end of 2025 Golders Green Meeting decided to be adventurous and hold the first ever exhibition in the 112-year history of the Meeting house. This ideal location, built in 1913, is an oasis of calm, in an urban setting yet surrounded by nature and bordering ancient woodland. The aims of the exhibition were to share the stillness felt in the building and its beautiful setting with visitors, and to be a witness to peace building and climate justice. The exhibition was aptly named Scorched Earth, Green Shoots.
