The Pavilion Steering Committee- Exodus Youth Worx, Northside Youth, and Doodle Designs is hosting The Big Draw: A Tapestry of Community at The Pavilion on The Green, N9 9DX,

12- 4pm on Saturday 18th October 2025

Join us for an inspiring and creative afternoon where we’ll imagine the future of The Green opposite the Overground Station. Using colorful yarn, recycled fabrics, and paper tags, we’ll weave together a vibrant tapestry that brings your ideas and those of your community to life.

This hands-on activity offers a unique opportunity to create a piece of art representing Edmonton Green and your shared hopes for the future. The Journeys and Places team will also be available on the day to gather your feedback on some exciting plans for the space.

Come be part of this community celebration, share your voice and your creativity!

The Pavilion Summer Party on Saturday 16th August was a hit. The event was filled with a whole range of interactive, hands-on creative activities and fun for all ages, including water pistol painting, arts & crafts, henna, jewellery making and outdoor games.

We also celebrated the birthday of a special member of the community who turned 3 on the day. There was lots of cake and of course a chorus of happy birthday.

In addition to the fun and activities had on the day, we had a very successful engagement session with just over 70 people on the new Edmonton Green Meanwhile Trading Project that will be delivered on The Green in spring next year. The session was held alongside Fisher Cheng who are the Architects for the project. The engagement session was an opportunity to present the concept design for the project and to ask residents and visitors what sort of businesses they would like to see trading in the area. There was also the opportunity to provide feedback and ideas for the project.

This event was organised in partnership with Exodus Youth Worx, Northside Youth, Doodle Design with the support of Enfield Council. Please keep an eye out for our next community activity to learn more about what is going on in Edmonton Green and we look forward to seeing you there.

The Public Art Celebration that took place on the Saturday 29th March was a success, with over 100 people attending.

We had members of the local community vote on which of the colour options they liked best for the new mural in Edmonton Green. They also gave their feedback on what the mural represented to them. The second colour option in blue won the public vote:

In addition to the votes for the new mural, we had a guided art trail around Edmonton Green included arts & crafts activities, jewelry making and live music performances

During Summer 2024, Enfield Council’s Place Shaping Team, part of Journeys and Places, worked with Fisher Cheng Architects and the Edmonton community to create a shared vision for The Green. Together, they co-designed and built a temporary pavilion.

The programme featured creative workshops for young people and families, including guided nature walks, den-building, live music, poetry, theatre, and wellbeing sessions. These activities were run in partnership with local groups Doodle Design, Exodus Youth Worx and Northside Youth.

Over 1,000 people attended these events helping to explore ways to bring new life to The Green and shape the Pavilion’s design.

Completed in June ’24, the Pavilion has hosted a summer programme of over 60 events, all delivered by local individuals and organisations, becoming a much-loved space by the local community and providing a platform for culture and creativity.

Now adopted as one of Enfield’s five new ‘Culture Places,’ the Pavilion will be co-managed by the Council and local organizations to continue hosting arts, culture, and community events—bringing lasting change to Edmonton.

Over 100 local residents attended the "Christmas at the Pavilion" event on 14th December.

The event, organised by Exodus Youth Worx, Northside Youth, Doodle Design and Edmonton Community Partnership with the support of Enfield Council included Arts & Crafts activities, Face Painting, Gingerbread Decorating, Hair Braiding, Jewellery Making, Live Music & Performances as well as Musical Statues

As Summer draws to a close, the Pavilion on The Green in Edmonton has wrapped up its first Summer Programme.

Between 29^th June to 21^st September, over 60 individual events, including yoga and pilates classes, live music, community choir and dance, workshop for children and families and many others took place at the Pavilion, Edmonton’s new Culture Place. The free events, all run by local people, attracted on The Green over 1500 Enfield’s residents of all ages throughout the Summer.

The Pavilion, co-designed by the local community and Fisher Cheng Architects, it is one of five “culture places” being delivered by Enfield Council in town centres across the borough to host arts, culture and community events.

Key highlights of the Summer included the Untold Edmonton Festival, a two-week programme to celebrate Edmonton’s rich cultural heritage; an Interactive Concert with London Sinfonietta, Gallipoli Music Memorial Trust and DJ-MC Academy as well as activities for local young people led by Exodus, NYCC, Doodle Design and many others.

The Pavilion, designed as a demountable structure, it is expected to remain on The Green for the next three years new to encourage the local community to dwell in and enjoy a local green space. As Edmonton’s new Culture Place, it will serve as a community gathering space and a platform for cultural education and expression encouraging participation from across the local community.

The Journeys and Places Team is now collaborating with local organisations in Edmonton to build on the success of the Summer Programme and to define the Pavilion’s longer-term programming and stewardship.

The Pavilion on The Green, co-designed by the local community and Fisher Cheng Architects last Summer, will launch on 29th June!
