Hacksmiths

This event has ended early and will not be running on Sunday the 18th Nov
Join Hacksmiths for a two-day invention marathon to create novel, impactful tech solutions that breathe new life into Lewisham’s past.
 
People of all abilities are invited to collaborate and build awesome projects addressing the tech and digital challenges of four London heritage organisations.
 
Framed by the research of Goldsmiths Historian, Dr John Price, and Anthropologist, Dr Charlotte Joy, help shape how the public engage with the Horniman Museum’s new World Gallery, the Lewisham Local History Society Museum Collection, the work of the Brockley Society, and a public artwork commemorating the 1977 Battle of Lewisham.
 
If you are interested in coming along to talk to participants or watch the presentations on the Sunday afternoon feel free to pop in. You will not need a ticket.
