CELEBRATING A PIONEER

---

DESCRIPTION

Conran Exhibition followed by light lunch(optional)

The Design Museum invites you to celebrate the memory of its founder, Sir Terence Conran, with a free exhibition that looks back at his extraordinary achievements, featuring early furniture designs and the establishment of Habitat.
Since the 1950s, Conran worked as a retailer, an entrepreneur, and a restaurateur. He ran businesses, wrote books and worked with architects and property developers. But he always described himself as a designer, first and foremost.
Conran reshaped design in Britain, transformed the retail industry, helped develop the template for the modern design consultancy, and led urban-regeneration projects. His ideas revolutionised everyday life, changing the way we eat, shop, and live today. Conran's definition of design was not determined by luxury or exclusivity, but rather by the premise that form and function could come together in a timeless way to improve the quality of life.
In addition, Conran was a tireless champion of design education and the creative industries in Britain. Through his educational charity, the Conran Foundation, he founded the Design Museum in 1989, which he later described as one of his proudest moments.
Advance booking not required; fre entry, meet at the entrance.

Fees (less meetup admin) will go to Songhaven ,a Community Interest Company,not-for-profit social enterprise; “Songhaven is committed to bringing joy and authentic connection to people living with dementia through the power of professional music-making in a relaxed and shame-free setting.”

YOUR HOST IS GITA

Hi, my name is Gita, which means song. My interests in the arts developed in adult life as it wasn't part of my upbringing in Mauritius. First experience was opera Carmen, school visit as we were studying the book in French class.
My interest ranges from fine arts to creative arts, dance, music, sculpture, instillations, exhibitions etc.
I ve benefitted from meetup events and now its time to give back. The events I'm listing are those I would go to anyway, hence donating fees to Songhaven. I
I look forward to making new friends as well as maybe reconnecting with some existing ones.
