Documenting Living Histories
Documenting Living Histories
Revisiting Brixton Rec is a community heritage project to create an archive of oral histories, photographs and other digital objects about the often neglected histories of the Brixton Recreation Centre. We want to capture your experiences of the energy, tournaments, conferences, exhibitions and parties at The Rec that made the building so special. The project aims to ensure these histories are remembered. But we need your help!
Do you have memories of Brixton Rec? If you have a story to tell and/or items to share, join us at our collection event on Saturday 3rd August 2024 at 11am - 4pm. We are looking for stories from the opening of the Rec in 1985 to the present day.
We aslo want to know your community icons, these are the names of the individuals that made your expeerience at the Rec memorable.
You can also call us on 07956 878 433 to get involved
