Idea Store Whitechapel

Course Overview

Course Overview
The tour is designed to highlight the significance of the area around the Idea Store in two ways. Visually it celebrates the layers of development which can be seen at street level, in terms of architecture and design. This is enhanced however by an exploration of the connections - sometimes surprising - between the area and important institutions, both British and overseas.

Meeting point is at Whitechapel Idea Store foyer entrance.

Please note that after the tour you will be given free access to Whitechapel Art Gallery (ticketed) Hamad Butt exhibition (ticket will be given to you on the day).
