Look Again: Discovery Tour

Help test MK’s new pilot design heritage trail*

FREE | 14 - 25 years | Tuesday 18 June | 5.30 - 7pm |

Join our partners at MK City Council to help test the new Look Again design heritage trail across CMK. The tour, led by Simon Peart, Conservation & Archaeology Manager at MK City Council, will last approx. 1 hour.

Look Again uses QR codes across the trail of artwork, green spaces and buildings to access a web-based guide of stories, images and archives. You’ll be part of a small group exploring MK’s standout modern heritage, art, architecture and design. Be sure to bring a phone to get the most out of the interactivity of the tour.

Please note that this event is for anyone aged 14-25. It’s especially perfect for those interested in art, history, place-making, town planning, urban design & architecture. A sociable and friendly atmosphere is guaranteed.

This event will end outside, at the front of MK Central Library, at approx. 7pm.
