READING GROUP

Hajar Reads: Infrastructure

29 April 2026, 6.30pm


Join Hajar Press, RESOLVE and Mosaic Rooms for a reading group on the theme of infrastrucure. 

Using extracts from selected Hajar Press titles, we'll consider the infrastructures that shape our societies and our lives — from systems of housing and healthcare to rules and designs that regulate 'private' and 'public' space.

What are the impacts of these infrastructures? And how could they be reorganised to better meet our needs?

Hajar Reads is new reading and discussion space, organised by Hajar Press, open to all. Each month, a themed selection of extracts from Hajar Press titles is taken as a starting point to imagine beyond the way things are and reflect on our responsibilities to the world and to each other.

Every three months, Hajar Reads will be co-hosted with Mosaic Rooms.

ARTIST BIO

Founded in 2020 by Brekhna Aftab and Farhaana Arefin, Hajar Press is an independent and proudly political publishing house by and for people of colour. With a focus on creative experimentation, they publish books by writers with original and transformative ways of seeing and remaking the world, from novels and short stories to poetry and essays. Interested in writing that reflects how politics are lived and felt, whether conveying histories of resistance passed down generations, or embodying how the future is prefigured and enacted today, they publish beautiful, revolutionary books that move us to think, feel, dream and imagine anew.

RESOLVE 
is an interdisciplinary design collective that combines architecture, engineering, technology and art to address social challenges. They have delivered numerous projects, workshops, publications, and talks in the UK and across the world, all of which look toward realising just and equitable visions of change in our built environment.
