Covid 19 Information
Currently, even though all restrictions for cultural venues have been lifted from the 19th of July, the Building Centre still has the following measures in place in order to mitigate the spread of Covid-19:

- All visitors must wear a mask when visiting the Building Centre.
- Signs with QR codes are in place at the entrance to encourage visitors to use the NHS track and trace app to register their visit.
- There is a one-way system to avoid overcrowding in transit areas, in particular on the stairs leading to the lower ground floor.
- Social distancing is still encouraged as reflected by the internal signage in place.

Events are carefully monitored with a cap on numbers to ensure that social distancing is possible. Hand-washing stations with disinfectants are available throughout the space.

When organising talks, workshop or guided tours Mass Collective will manage attendance through Eventbrite in order to ensure social distancing can be respected throughout the activities.

Curated by Mass Collective, Londons – The Polycentric City features work from eight photographers, each documenting a different area of the capital throughout lockdown.

From Barking and Stratford in the east to Nine Elms and Croydon in the south, the images illustrate the city’s evolution into a series of disparate satellite centres. Each has its own character – some feature towering developments and industrialised rivers, whilst others have historical centres and nature reserves.

Mass Collective’s photographic project explores how these centres have developed, revealing their identity and questioning their relationships with the past.

The eight photographers, who all specialise in capturing the built environment, are Andrew Meredith, Caroline Charrel, Francesco Russo, Henry Woide, Luca Piffaretti, Polly Tootal, Simon Kennedy and Sue Barr.
