What's on in Knob Hill

Leicestershire, England

Village halls, community centres, and that one pub everyone knows about — Knob Hill keeps its social calendar fuller than you'd expect, and here's the lot. From craft workshops and farmers' markets to quiz nights and coffee mornings, talks and screenings to book clubs and bingo. The events that make a place feel like home rather than just somewhere you happen to live. We've scoured parish council sites, library listings, venue pages, and community noticeboards to find everything happening near you. The stuff the big sites miss because they're too busy listing festivals fifty miles away.

Thursday Art Class +

Weekly Art Classes + Elevate your practice in a professional, collaborative environment… This isn’t your typical art class. It is a dedicated space for established creators and art students seeking high-level feedback and a structured environment to advance their independent projects. Join us for a relaxed and inspiring two-hour ‘open studio’ session. This is a space for like-minded creatives to come together, work on their own projects, and develop their ideas in a supportive and collaborative environment. Bring along a piece you’re currently working on, a new concept you’d like to explore, or a project you’re developing. Throughout the session, you’ll receive tailored guidance and constructive feedback to help refine your ideas, strengthen your artistic approach, and move your work towards a resolved final piece. Whether you’re looking for fresh perspective, technical advice, or simply the motivation that comes from creating alongside other artists, this session offers time, space, and expert support to help your work progress. What to expect: Tailored Guidance: Individual, constructive feedback to help refine your artistic approach. Studio Environment: A shared creative energy with basic materials and bottomless refreshments provided. Flexible Growth: Open to established artists and current art students looking to bridge the gap between study and practice. The Details Sessions run every Thursday from 1 pm – 3 pm. The investment is £15 per session, or £75 for a block...

Latest News from Desborough Family History Group Events

November has been another busy month for the Family History Group. Our Thursday afternoon meetings continue as we try and get back to normal after restrictions. We meet every Thursday afternoon 1.00 � 3.00 pm in Desborough Heritage Centre. The group remains busy with new projects as well as our family history research. Our November zoom meeting was a success with two very interesting talks. Liz Harris started the meeting, presenting "1952 � The Blissett family in Nichols Street". We hope other members will also tell us about their family's life in 1952, contributing to our next project celebrating the Queens Jubilee. Stuart Irons presented the second talk, "Desborough Carnivals up to 1939". He started with two films of past carnivals from 1950 and 1960; there were lots of old familiar faces and all members were reminded how big the carnivals were and how well supported. There will be a part two to this talk which will take us up to 1970.
