'Brutal architecture' is a style of the nineteen seventies. However, the exhibition focuses on the visual elements of a visionary design of a housing estate, of which center was community and human connectedness. Visionary architectures in the late 1960s, envisioned Grahame Park Estate, with two churches, a community center, a library, shops, and lots of playfields for children. A bygone age? What can we learn today from this designed which, sadly, is doomed to go with the newest wave of regeneration. From church perspective, it is a good way of looking back what mission meant in the past, and in the present in an urban setting.

St Augustine's was built in 1975 and since then has served Grahame Park housing estate in North London.

Our Sunday Mass at 10am is sung and attended by all ages with Sunday School for children. We welcome new people and rejoice that we're drawn from such a diverse set of communities. We are Catholic Anglicans under the episcopal care of The See of Fulham. We pray for the unity of Christ's Catholic and Apostolic church. Our church, via its outreach, also serves as a family and community hub. We currently offer art-workshops for children, and 'Children's Fun Church' as we call our Sunday School. We also have a day time, Offsted-funded Nursery for 2-5 year old (Mo-Thu).
