Gin lovers rejoice, science geeks get giddy with excitement, for it’s the return of Gin Lab: St Neots’ premier gin-tasting experience.

Our team of intrepid lab technicians have spent the last six months painstakingly hunting down and analysing the best boutique gins from around the world. We’re going high end this time around, so while there’s slightly less quantity on the tasting menu, the quality will be off the chart.

Your £20 ticket will give you a half-measure taste of eight sumptuous gins, plus tonic and a plate full of garnishes with which to adorn your glass. Try the distiller-recommended garnish, follow our lab technician’s advice or come up with your own experimental concoctions. When you’ve found your winning combination, your ticket also gets you a double gin and tonic from the bar (and you can buy more too). A world of scientific discovery awaits!

Over 18s only; under 25s will need ID on the door. Sorry, no refunds.

Tickets are £20 in advance from our online store, or in person from the Love’s Farm House office (weekdays 9am to 3pm, 9am to 12pm during school holidays).

Faces of St Neots row.jpg

Love’s Farm House is hosting a portrait challenge! We want to see the Faces of St Neots in all their diversity: young, old, black, white, happy, sad. It might be a painting, drawing, photo, digital illustration, collage… anything goes, as long as it fits on an A4 page (portrait orientation) and is suitable for display in our foyer. Self-portraits are welcome but we don’t want quick selfies: think about how to capture your (or your subject’s) personality.

Portraits must be a single face of someone from St Neots, head and shoulders only. Drop your submissions off at Love’s Farm House (Mon-Fri 9am-3pm) or email digital images to ben@lovesfarmhouse.co.uk. Please include your name and contact info, plus the name of your subject (with their permission). The deadline is 29 March.

You can create your portrait at any time, but if you’re looking for inspiration, join us for a Portrait Workshop on Saturday 16 March, 3:30-5:30pm at Love’s Farm House. We’ll have artists, designers and photographers on hand to help you create your masterpiece. Adults and children are all welcome and there’s no need to book – just drop in, and don’t forget to bring a friend or family member to use as your subject.

All portraits will be exhibited at Love’s Farm House in April, kicking off with a launch event on Saturday 6 April. A few of the best portraits will remain on display in our foyer for a longer period.

Exhibition: Melina LaFirenze

unnamed

Join us on Friday 9 March, 7:30pm for the launch of our seventh exhibition by local artists. Children (accompanied by a parent or carer) welcome until 9pm.

Melina La Firenze is an artist living and working in St Neots, born in Italy and brought up in London. She is self-taught and has been a painter all her life, starting with oils at age 12. Her paintings have been exhibited in London, Barcelona and Salamanca.

He work is often informed by patterns found in nature. The colours vibrant. She is obsessed with trees. One thing that is consistent about her work is that she never paints the same thing twice. This is a collection of brand new paintings, three of which are derivative portraits of Hans Silvester’s photos of Omo valley tribes people and two of which are a playful celebration of colour and pattern. Melina does work on commission including portraits.

Visit www.instagram.com/melinalafirenze to see more of her work. Love’s Farm House’s gallery space is curated by Neotists.
