Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park E20 FREE
Devised by Olivier Grossetête
As the foundations of a new cultural district start to be laid , you are invited to take part in a spectacular architectural event devised by the French artist Olivier Grossetête . At a series of workshops , hundreds of cardboard boxes will be crafted into the building blocks of a democratically assembled building - built solely through human power and collective endeavour . On Saturday , come and watch in amazement - and lend a hand - as extraordinary new buildings rise from the ground . Then on Sunday admire the completed building before joining in a massive demolition .
