Reading the City
14 October @ 18:00 - 20:00
We gather to read, look, and think together – across disciplines, across cities, and across what usually gets thrown away.
Reading the city
Reading the City is a monthly reading group bringing together artists, academics, writers, and curious others to explore how we live with waste, materials, and urban ecologies. Each session is led by a different voice: one week an artist curates, the next an academic, then an engineer, a writer – each shaping what we read and how we read it. We come to texts together: sometimes with readings sent in advance, sometimes through close-reading, discovering them in the room.
