Hash Tag "Architecture during Lockdown"

If you are a cyclist and you live in London, you have an opportunity this Saturday, July 25th 2020 to join a tour exploring South London Architecture of Iconic Public Housing, if you don't fit this description then read on......

I just came across and ad for Open House Melbourne virtual tours this weekend, July 25th and 26th, I thought to myself, why would virtual tours be locked in specific times?

It turned out that Melbourne is one of 46 cities around the world hosting festivals, virtual tours and dialogues about the built environment across the globe, this network is called Open House Worlwide but this weekend "Open House Melbourne" has organised free Live tours where questions can be asked and activities will be virtually conducted.

The Young Ones haven't been forgotten either, I have quoted below the invitation from the Strathcona Girls Grammar School for the young ones and the youth to take a virtual tour of the magnificent building Tay Creggan and learn about its interesting history. They can also take a tour of Tay Creggan in Minecraft or download the TC Minecraft world and explore on their own in Minecraft. Additionally, they can listen to the TC Envision webinar with the League of Extraordinary Women or listen to mini lessons of food technology, science or drama.

Some of the places you can virtually visit this weekend (or any other time if you have no particular interest in the Live Q&A and activities):

• Villa Alba Museum
• Metro tunnel
• City Link traffic control room
• Kew court house
• Hawthorm arts centre
• Chocolate Buddha and so much more.

So take off the pyjamas this weekend (oh no it's a virtual tour...... keep the pyjamas on) and join a tour...

HAVE FUN
