SEW+TELL /RIBA - Music: the key ingredient in urban regeneration?

The debate is open!

SEW +Tell in partnership with the RIBA North London Architecture Group invites to you to an open forum for discussion on "Music: the key ingredient in urban regeneration?" with a mix of presenters from industry experts through to students from the London Schools of Architecture.

We all know that practice makes perfect, but as almost 16% of the UK’s small venues closed for good last year, there are less and less spaces for your next favourite artist to master their trade.

And yet, the beat goes on. Music weaves its way through our urban fabric, forging space in community halls, pubs, the underground and busking pitches. Music can kickstart regeneration, bring communities together, establish a generational scene and even rebrand entire cities. How can architects and urban designers make space for music? Who will pay for it? How big should a venue be? And who is it for?

After an initial presentation and debate, you’ll get to enjoy an evening at SEW’s studio with cheese & wine (soft drinks as well), networking and chips!

We look forward to welcoming you to Studio Egret West studio!
