WHAT IS AN URBAN ROOM?
This is usually a place where the public can directly engage within a physical space dedicated to understanding the past, present and future of their town or city.
An urban room can act as an exhibition hall, a community centre and a learning space, while giving people opportunities to help redesign and re-imagine their city’s, or town’s, future.
Details of the Urban Rooms Network can be found here.
HASTINGS URBAN ROOM
Initially HUDG will be limiting their Urban Room to an online presence, with a series of changing topics which the Group consider may be of wider interest. At present practical and financial issues prevent HUDG developing the Urban Room as a permanent physical entity, but if it seems appropriate, once we are beyond Covid, temporary pop-up exhibitions may be set up from time to time, similar to the SoCad events of the past (see Archive).
