University of the Streets: Joan Littlewood, Fun Palaces and Culture as a Political Act – 25 June

Join Fun Palaces makers and team for an afternoon of conversation, participation and shared thinking over a drink at the Sunflower Pub.

Inspired by Joan Littlewood and Cedric Price’s Fun Palace ideas, this informal gathering explores how theatre, music, pubs, storytelling, craft and shared cultural acts can become forms of participation, visibility and collective life.

You’ll find out more about Joan Littlewood, Cedric Price, the original Fun Palace project, and why their ideas about art, culture and public life feel even more relevant today.

Part talk, part conversation, part collective experiment, this event is open to anyone interested in culture, participation, public life and collective creativity. Together we’ll think about culture beyond institutions — and what a contemporary “University of the Streets” might look like now.

  • Thursday 25 June
  • 3–5pm
  • Sunflower Pub, 65 Union St, Belfast BT1 2JG
