Open House Residency
2017 Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, UK
Open House Artist in Residence 2017
At a public meeting at North Cambridge Academy School members of the local community and students at the school voted to select Harold Offeh as the next Open House Artist in Residence for North Cambridge, a diverse, but economically deprived area. Harold who lives in the area worked with communities to develop a project reflected peoples’ experiences of domestic objects and collections.
On September 16 2017. Harold invited members of the public to join him in a celebration of local food and domestic design at a Gathering at North Cambridge Academy. The event featured displays from North Cambridge community groups, tastings from local bakers, tips on growing your own food from gardeners and activities for all ages. Following the Gathering, Harold hosted a Feast for members of the community who had contributed in some way to the Gathering. See photos of the day on the Open House Facebook page.
