by Brianna Crandall — May 2, 2011—The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) is opening the first-ever RIBA Hub in Manchester, England: a flexible city center space offering a dedicated area for architects, students and those with an interest in architectural design to meet, collaborate and learn. The RIBA Hub is located at 113-115 Portland Street, at the entrance of CUBE, the Manchester Architecture Centre.
RIBA Hub features an exhibition space, a caf, a specialist bookshop stocking a selection of the latest RIBA architectural books and magazines, and a meeting space.
It will deliver seminars and CPD courses to RIBA members and allied professionals, says the group. A six-week rolling program of exhibitions and activities for the Hub’s exhibition space has also been planned in collaboration with the Manchester School of Architecture. The Hub will open on May 12, 2011.
