Friday Lunch
The sharing of food is a great leveller. On the second and fourth Friday of the month, we invite people who live or work in and around Huntly to speak about things they are passionate about – this could include their work, a project, an area of research or hobby. Topics are broad and change every time, from nature to community development, writing to food, history to social justice among many others.
Come along for a free, hot and tasty meal, and to meet other people who live and work in and around Huntly. Find out what's going on in our local community and make friends - everyone is welcome.
No booking required, just turn up and join in. Find out what's up next.
Accessibility
Friday Lunch is usually attended by 15-25 people. It takes place in Square Deal (22 The Square, Huntly AB54 8BR). There is a guide to visiting Square Deal online here. This includes information on travelling to the community hub, photos and plans of the space, and sensory information.
This is a family friendly event and children are very welcome. We have highchairs and children’s cutlery/crockery available.
There are facilities for heating up your own food if desired.
This event is free, but donations of £2 to cover the cost of ingredients and any access costs for the speaker are welcomed.

About the HOME Programme
Friday Lunch is part of our HOME programme. Through regular events and artists’ residencies, HOME supports the everyday and creative practices of cooking and eating, chatting and caring, sharing skills and learning together.
HOME regular events include Friday Lunch, as well as the monthly Food Chain cookery workshop and a stall at the Huntly Farmers' Market. These events celebrate local knowledge and experiences, and explore what it's like to live and work in and around Huntly. Through this work we aim to build more complex understandings of Huntly and its place in the world.
If you'd like to contribute to the HOME Programme, or know someone who you'd love to hear from, then get in touch with us on: bruce@deveron-projects.com.
