Explore the role of heritage in contemporary placemaking during this talk about how identity , belonging and meaning are shaped in the built environment . Rooted and Relevant will explore the role of heritage in contemporary placemaking, asking how historic context can ground development while remaining resonant for modern audiences. Is heritage too often absent from placemaking conversations? What is lost when identity is treated as a marketing exercise rather than something embedded in the cultural and physical fabric of a place? Details Thursday 4 June, 6pm – 8pm Organised by Donald Insall Associates
