The Art of the Other Regent's Park: Regent’s Park Estate Story Trail
Alongside Frieze week in The Regent’s Park, join the Old Diorama Arts Centre curating team, artists and residents for an antidote to the commercialism down the road: a tour and reception celebrating Regent’s Park Estate Story Trail, a permanent, community-commissioned, socially-engaged public art trail, which launched in April 2025.
THURSDAY 16TH OCTOBER
4.30pm: Guided tour - meet at ODAC, 201 Drummond Street, NW1 3FE
5.30pm - 7pm: Drinks reception at ODAC and self-guided tours
RSVP below!
Join us for the unveiling celebration on April 24th from 5-8pm:
From an AI-powered talking tree and a kaleidoscope of memories, to large scale photography and utility access covers proclaiming messages of women’s empowerment, 28 diverse and unusual site-responsive public artworks by 10 artists and collectives have been created in collaboration with Regent’s Park Estate residents.
The artworks respond to stories and locations selected by residents, and explore the local culture, ecology and heritage of the area, promoting a sense of local pride, safety and connection.
“I've explored dozens of art trails over the years and this one is honestly up there with the best of them, thanks to its grounded, community focus and playful use of the streetscape. Unlike many trails (the annual Frieze sculptures in nearby Regent's Park, springs to mind), the labels are clear and meaningful, with strong back-stories. It's ace.” - Londonist
