Bow Arts presents a community exhibition at the iconic, brutalist Lakeside Centre.

Residents and visitors are invited to sit and enjoy a welcoming place to connect, reflect and celebrate Thamesmead’s stories. The building's rooftop media space will be transformed into a cosy, living room-style space with seating and rugs, where people can sit and appreciate a new community creation: a large, colourful hanging textile that features objects from the homes of local residents, inspired by Asafo flags.

This exhibition is part of a wider programme of events and workshops run by Bow Arts over the week.
