Abstract

South Bank Exhibition THE Festival of Britain, to be held during May-September, 1951, will be a nation-wide demonstration of the leading achievements of Great Britain in the arts, sciences, technology and industrial design. The centre piece of the Festival will be the Exhibition on the south bank of the River Thames between County Hall and Waterloo Bridge, and this will be mainly concerned with those contributions of science, technology and industrial design in which the prestige of Britain stands highest. Three Qther supplementary Exhibitions, two in London and one in Glasgow, will deal in more detail with architecture, science and heavy engineering respectively; and the amusement section normally associated with any large exhibition will be in Battersea Park, London. In addition, two Travelling Exhibitions will visit provincial centres during the Festival summer and will tell, in different language, the same story as that in the South Bank Exhibition in London.
