Over the next weeks we'll introduce characters from our #HiddenHistories exhibition, starting with one you may know. Charles Brown (lived here 1816-22), best known as friend of Keats, had an affair with his maid at the house and took the resulting child to Italy (and later NZ).

Nearly the end of a joyously busy week, with lots of school sessions and uni group visits being inspired by Keats House Museum and garden. If you wannabe a #poet like #Keats, here’s two great opportunities from our friends The Poetry Society, one of which is particularly for #Camden youth.

Starting to get excited for this event, from 6pm on Saturday 20 July, when we welcome our friends from Saudha back to Keats House Museum for a celebration of Indian #Baul and #Vaishnav music. It's #free but please book a place via the Eventbrite page in the linked post.

Don't forget that the house is open until 7pm today! Book in advance here eventbrite.co.uk/e/keats-house-… - or just turn up! #thingstodo #HiddenHistories

Welcoming Saudha to Keats House Museum is always one of our favourite events of the year, this year presenting a hypnotic recital of #Vaishnav music with #poetry linked to themes in #Keats’s writing, perfectly suited to a summer’s evening in #Hampstead. eventbrite.co.uk/e/baul-vaishna…

On Friday 2 Aug 11am-1pm we will be putting out toys and crafts in the house to keep the little ones entertained while the grown-ups enjoy the museum! Drop in, normal admission applies. For more details about this and other under-5s events, see eventbrite.co.uk/o/keats-house-…

‘He is with the Poets!’ It is with great sadness that we learnt of the death of Clive Jones, who through his tours and poetry readings was for many people their first and lasting impression of Keats House. He will always be remembered for his generosity and passion for Keats.

The next character in our #HiddenHistories exhibition is Charles Wentworth Dilke. He lived with his wife Maria on one side of the house. Part of Keats's literary circle, he was a writer with liberal political views. Visit the house to find out more!

We are so excited to be part of #KidsAloud with @ArtFund this week! Join our drop-in family morning session on Fri 2 August between 11am and 1pm. More information about our event is here eventbrite.co.uk/e/family-morni…

We are taking part in the #GrimwoodMuseumAdventure from Kids in Museums and Simon & Schuster Children's Books this summer holiday! From this Sunday you can embark on a brilliantly bonkers trail at Keats House. Find out more at kidsinmuseums.org.uk/grimwood-museu… Nadia Shireen Art Fund

The next character from our #HiddenHistories exhibition is Fanny Brawne. She lived at the house from 1818-1830 and had a zest for life, enjoying fashion, singing, dancing and reading. Unfortunately her years Keats House Museum were marred by loss - of her fiance, mother and brother.

‘Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.’ For Clive from ‘Do not go gentle into that good night’ by Dylan Thomas.

Fanny Brawne’s mother and brother also feature in our #HiddenHistories exhibition. They both met premature ends while living Keats House Museum - her mother when her dress caught fire, and her 23 year old brother Sam (pictured) from consumption, the same disease that killed Keats.

There are still a few places left on our under 5s events in September. For more information and to book visit eventbrite.co.uk/o/keats-house-… #kidsinmuseums #thingstodo

As summer draws to a close, we are excited to be planning our autumn events! From under 5s stay & play to the lives of the women who lived here, there's something for everyone. And more still to be announced! See keatsevents.eventbrite.co.uk for more info. #thingstodo #HiddenHistories

On 3 October is our next Late Night Keats event, where we will delve into the lives of the women who lived Keats House Museum in the past, including Miss Chester (pictured). Expect performance, tours, a talk, crafts and mocktails! Book via eventbrite.co.uk/e/late-night-k… #thingstodo

Next Sunday, 15 September, from 11am -5pm, we will be taking part on #OpenHouseLondon! Come and visit the romantic house where John Keats wrote many of his famous poems, in a lovely garden setting, and on the edge of Hampstead Heath.

Not only has Keats House Museum had human inhabitants, but plenty of animals have lived here too, including Fanny Brawne's pouter pigeons (like the one pictured!). They didn't always do too well: 'the cats have taken Primrose'. Visit the #HiddenHistories exhibition to find out more!

Keats House is closed to the public on Friday 20 September, while staff attend team meetings. Please accept our apologies for any disappointment and inconvenience. We will be open as normal from Sunday 22 September: cityoflondon.gov.uk/keats
