1. FUSEBOX

FUSEBOX is a new multi-arts space run by Creative Youth – a Kingston-based charity who enable young people to get involved in innovative, original and ambitious projects and realise their creative potential.

As Creative Youth’s HQ, it was the main exhibition venue for the AMP trail in early 2024, with a host of exciting things to explore which you can still discover digitally below. You could watch our ‘Gogglebox’ film, capturing the reactions of young viewers to some groundbreaking music performances across the decades; delve into our LP Memory Stand of seminal albums linked to Kingston and read the intergenerational reviews; walk through our ‘Lyric Forest’ to connect more closely with the song-writing of the times; and learn about the evolution of street styles across the decades in our fashion display. You could also listen to oral history testimonies covering four of Kingston’s music venues: 

There is also an interactive venues map which is a compilation of the various locations that Kingston locals have cited over the course of our research.

Artist Saskia Gall (@saskiagall) created a fantastic David Bowie Face In The Hole for AMP and the Bowie and Beyond exhibition at Kingston Museum which was on display again here. #AMPBowie
