“Great environment, great atmosphere”, “lively and interesting”, “Thank you for such an amazing session!”

Our supper clubs with local community groups are proving popular, so we’re opening up the opportunity to participate to the general public! If you’ve ever wondered how to design a city, or been curious about how Milton Keynes was created, then this is the event for you.

Dinner is included so why not join us to have informal discovery and discussion around the original plan for our city. Maybe you can come up with some new goals for Milton Keynes? Maybe you’ll like the original goals? We’d love to find out!

Join us on Friday 8September, 7–9pm at the Events Space at MK Gallery.

Please be aware that the event will be recorded and photographed. All food will be vegan, but please let us know of any dietary requirements or allergies.

Places are very limited so book your free ticket now!
