About

February 12th. At Bromley House Library. 2pm – 4pm

An afternoon of exploration, reading, discussion and reflection to consider alternative archives and unique systems of recording inspired by both place and practice, with readings and presentations by cultural geographer Dr David Matless (University of Nottingham) and Bromley House Library artists in residence David Gilbert and Kate Genever. Included in the event is an opportunity to visit the ongoing archive work within the library and a tour of the current exhibition and library.

The event is a precursor to a longer process of exploration of the archives and archival processes at this unique and fascinating library, a hidden gem in the centre of Nottingham.

This is a free event and light refreshments will be served. Supported by CVAN EM through the Start of Something fund.

10 places are available: 5 for Bromley House Library members and 5 non-members.
