Unearthed: The Power of Gardening
The exhibition explores the transformative, enriching and sometimes radical power of gardening in Britain and how it impacts people, communities and the environment.
From rural and urban gardens and allotments to indoor gardens and windowsills, the exhibition delves into how the act of gardening heals and sustains people in a multitude of ways. It explores how gardening brings people together, empowers communities and shapes our relationship with the natural world. It also considers gardening as a form of activism, as a means of challenging land ownership and highlighting social disparities, as well as the consequences of the international movement of plants for the environment and human societies.
Running from 2 May to 10 August at Central Library in partnership with The British Library and Living Knowledge Network.
