Colourful owls swoop down on Haringey

The uniquely-designed owl statues are part of a new art trail promoting the work of North London Hospice

Thirty colourful, giant owl statues have swooped down upon Haringey and are now roosting on their plinths around the borough.

Owlbert and his friends are part of the Big Fun Art Adventure. Organised by North London Hospice, Wild in Art and supported and sponsored by Haringey Council, the trail aims to raise awareness and funds for the hospice.

Officially launched on Saturday (17th), the owls are waiting to be discovered on a fun, free and easy-to-follow art trail for eight weeks.

Designed by local schools and community groups from Barnet, Enfield and Haringey, the owl sculptures celebrate the vibrancy, culture and creativity that North London has to offer, highlighting iconic spots such as Alexandra Palace and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as well as local hidden gems.

If you’d like to get involved, you can download the dedicated trail app or pick up a paper map. The Big Fun Art Adventure website will have the latest updates:
