MAKING HOME: A COMMUNITY LISTENING CONVERSATION - HARLESDEN

Turab Shah and Arwa Aburawa, I Carry It With Me Everywhere (2022), film still. Commissioned as part of the Brent Biennial 2022, In the House of my Love (8 July – 11 September 2022).

How do you and your family and community make yourself at home, in Brent or wherever you live? How is art and creativity a part of your experience of home?

Join us for a community listening event co-organised with Brent Citizens. We will visit artworks by Arwa Aburawa & Turab Shah and Zinzi Minott and hear how they reflect the artists’ experiences of making home. We will talk about how we make home Harlesden, what gets in the way of this and how creativity is or might be part of creating the place where we want to live.

This first of three conversations will take place in Harlesden, and we welcome Harlesden community members and anyone else who wants to be part of the conversation. A culminating event in September will draw all three conversations together and help us shape the future of Metroland Cultures’ work in Brent. It will be followed by conversations in the other Brent Biennial hubs of Willesden on Saturday 20 August and Kilburn on Friday 26 August. A culminating event in September will draw all three conversations together and help us shape the future of Metroland Cultures’ work in Brent.
