Local to the neighbourhood, Camden-based photographic artist, Anna Lerner, has been photographing Somers Town for over five years. What is it that keeps her returning?

Wandering its streets, exploring shared spaces, peering through windows and doorways, and meeting people and animals along the way, accompanied by her camera, Somers Town has become a familiar and welcoming place - a place of belonging.

This exhibition invites you to notice the quiet moments and details of a place where people live, connect, gather, and belong - and the people and happenings that make it the neighbourhood it is.

This exhibition is accompanied by the talk "Discussion: Somers Town – A sense of belonging?" on Saturday 13 June, 14:00-16:00, see Anna Lerner's organiser page to book tickets
