Group 37
INFRASTRUCTURE EXHIBITION

The aim of this project is to create and set up an exhibition that honours the work done by Manchester School of Architecture students in the Infrastructure Space Atelier, particularly their efforts towards envisioning the future of the Florence Arts Centre in Egremont and the wider Cumbria area. To involve the local community, a workshop will be organised that highlights the students work while building relationships around the potential reuse of the site and the region. The MArch 1 Infrastructure Space students have been working alongside the Arts Centre and other significant stakeholders since October 2022, undertaking studio projects to reinterpret the mine site.
