The KQ is pleased to share our upcoming tour of the Aga Khan Centre, one of the most beautiful buildings in the Knowledge Quarter.
About the Centre
The Aga Khan Centre is a place of education, knowledge, cultural exchange and insight into Muslim civilisations. The building is the UK home for three organisations founded by His Late Highness Aga Khan IV, the hereditary spiritual leader of the Shi‘a Ismaili Muslims.
The building was designed by Fumihiko Maki, one of Japan’s most distinguished contemporary architects. The Centre is primarily designed for an academic community, with places for students, scholars and staff to share ideas and work together alongside flexible teaching spaces and quiet research areas.
Event Information
We’re thrilled to offer KQ members and residents an exclusive chance to explore some of the building’s smaller (but mighty) details.
The tour will provide a behind-the-scenes look at library artefacts, as well as access to the Sky Garden and the surrounding terrace balconies. With its intelligent design, we’re excited to share all that this space has to offer.
- Date: Tuesday 6 May
- Time: 08:30 AM – 09:30 AM
- Location: Aga Khan Centre, 10 Handyside St, London N1C 4DN
