Making Spaces

Our lives are increasingly dominated by the virtual world, but we need face-to-face contact to keep us well, and we need shared spaces to explore our creativity.

Financial pressures are reducing our options of where we can socialise, share stories, develop relationships, be creative. Increasingly, culture has become commodified, we consume rather than create.

What actual (non virtual) spaces do we need, to explore our creativity in the future, how will they operate, how will they be funded?

A tiny area of central Reading; London Street/Silver Street/East Street/South Street, offer some insights. From squatting arts centres, community participation, to global solidarity, what will our future hold?
