"Aptly called the Museum of Youth Culture, London's new gallery showing artefacts and culture created by teenagers will arrive in a permanent home in Camden this December, with the exact opening date still to be confirmed. The 6,500 square-foot site, which will be a short walk from Camden Town, will preserve teenage life from the past 100 years, showing photography, archive video, books, zines, ephemera, objects and oral histories. Think rave flyers, band tees, dub soundsystems and even school leavers shirts."
"The space will comprise three gallery spaces with rotating displays: two rolling galleries will pull highlights from the permanent collection and archive, plus a dedicated free gallery space will allow young creatives to exhibit their work. The museum will also host talks, screenings, and learning workshops, such as hands-on music production courses, and will be home to a bar, café and record store."

The space contains three gallery spaces with rotating displays: two rolling galleries drawn from the permanent archive and a free gallery for young creatives.
