About this event
Lost Blocks Collective has curated and designed 'City In The Sky' a bold new exhibition opening on 22nd July 2022 on Broadwater Farm Estate. The Collective, formed by a group of young residents living on and near the estate in Tottenham, North London, seeks to challenge the narrative surrounding the estate and who gets to tell it.
This exhibition invites residents and non-residents to immerse themselves in the stories and histories of Farm and the juxtaposition of media lead narratives against real-life stories, events, and experiences of those who live and work there.
The collective wants to ensure Broadwater Farm Estate is celebrated for its diverse stories and cultures. This exhibition will see visitors exposed to the lives and untold stories of residents and community figures who have shaped what this vibrant community is today. The exhibition explores the past, present and future of the estate through the lens of young Londoners.
‘We want to show everyone how significant Farm is to Tottenham and how our residents have shaped the incredible community we call home’ – Lost Blocks Collective
Unfortunately, as we are running the exhibition in an older building, the venue does not have any disability access.
This event will be photographed and filmed, if you do not wish to be filmed or photographed please inform a member of staff on the day of the event.
This exhibition is delivered in collaboration with Beyond The Box Consultants CIC.
