An exciting new visitor attraction in Camberwell, created by the restoration of the Cold War nuclear bunker, on the corner of Vestry Road and Peckham Road.
Created by, with and for Camberwell but to share with the world.
Below ground: Restore the bunker to its previous condition and then use it as s site for exhibiting art with political, protest or dissident content.
Above ground: A new museum for London, retelling the Cold War narrative affecting all continents and all peoples.
For our community’s needs: A site to provide opportunity for work experience and training, from giving young Southwark architects an opportunity to shine, to providing customer-facing experience for the long-term unemployed, in partnership with local organisations.
For our diverse population: To see our own stories told in post-war context and to understand each other better.
For our artistic community: Curatorial Partnerships with local institutions.
For History: To educate, understand and create the historians of the future.
For the regeneration of Camberwell
