Royal College of Art, Kensington Gore, SW7 2EU
As part of the Royal College of Art Architecture & Design Interim Show, Thomas Pausz has collaborated with Manor Garden Society plotholders to reconstruct their Community Shed using their memories and stories.
The original shed formed the hub of the century-old Manor Garden Allotments by the River Lea on the border of Newham and Hackney. It was demolished in October 2007 together with the entire allotments and surrounding area, to make way for landscaping of the 2012 Olympic park.
All are warmly invited to attend the event, which will include a plotholder’s meeting, discussion and the showing of a new film by Mark Aitken made at the old Manor Gardens.
