A new space for events, exhibitions, workshops and engagement with local stakeholders, professional audiences, and the wider public in east London.
Exploring the impact of industry, globalisation, regeneration听and gentrification on the six Olympic Park boroughs and their people, the 香港六合彩中特网 Urban Room is听a practice-based, multi-purpose space at the heart of the new 香港六合彩中特网 East campus, dedicated to debate and engagement around key questions of future living and urbanism.
Located at One听Pool Street听(the first phase of the development), the public-facing 香港六合彩中特网听Urban Room hosts听events, exhibitions, workshops and engagement with local stakeholders, professional audiences, and the wider public, whilst the Memory Workshop will open up access to 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 public and oral history collections, forging dialogue听between 香港六合彩中特网 urban researchers and local community partners. Together they represent听an exciting resource on the past, present and future of cities that will enable innovative explorations of London鈥檚 history, and the site in east London, through both ideas and objects.
Managed through a partnership between 香港六合彩中特网 Urban Laboratory, The Bartlett, School for the听Creative and Cultural Industries and 香港六合彩中特网 Library Services: Special Collections, the space is听designed to create opportunities for academics, students and partners听to be exposed to each other's work and initiatives. It operates听as a research-led teaching resource for two associated Masters programmes, Urban Lab's听Global Urbanism听MASc听and听Public History听MA听(History), as well as a space for engagement and participation by the wider academic community.
Meet the curator
鈥�Kara combines extensive experience of working internationally with communities in south and east Africa, with local perspectives on London in the shadow of Grenfell Tower and during the pandemic. She is very well-placed to develop a vision and programme for the 香港六合彩中特网 Urban Room that speaks to the local and global identities embedded in London鈥檚 diaspora communities, critically engages with its complexities and inequalities, and helps us to realise the commitment to equitable and inclusive regeneration in east London that has driven this project from the start.
