Part of the
Celebrate the Summer Exhibition Architecture Room at this afternoon of conversations with some of the featured artists and architects, with Assemble RA.
Discover some of the stories behind the works in the Summer Exhibition Architecture Room, hear from Architecture Room curator Assemble, then join us for a drinks reception in the Main Galleries.
This year’s Architecture Room, as curated by Assemble, will explore ideas around "spaces for making". Throughout the afternoon, you’ll hear from architects, both established and emerging, as they discuss making spaces and the importance of studios in the design and production processes.
In between the presentations, there will be opportunities to join in the discussion.
Assemble RA is a multi-disciplinary collective working across architecture, design and art. Founded in 2010 to undertake a single self-built project, Assemble has since delivered a diverse and award-winning body of work, whilst retaining a democratic and co-operative working method that enables built, social and research-based work at a variety of scales, both making things and making things happen. In 2015 Assemble was the first collective to be awarded the Turner Prize for their network of neighbourhood projects created in collaboration with the residents of Granby, Liverpool.
Your ticket includes a drinks reception for all participants and speakers and access to the Summer Exhibition from 6.30pm during our Friday late opening.
