welcome ...

The People’s Story is an innovative local arts project for the people of Enfield and Edmonton.

It is a fantastic opportunity for you to take part in a wide range of arts and heritage events organised by Age Exchange and L&Q Housing Trust, and hosted by local groups across the borough.

Memories, photography, music and film will inspire the creation of an exhibition, a theatre production, and documentary film - each telling the real “People’s Story”.
