“CPAOH - Crystal Palace and its creative legacy
A heritage rooted in creativity, the history of Crystal Palace is steeped in innovation, the most famous being The Great Exhibition of 1854. The amazing glass house buildings displayed the best inventions and creations and were home to the Crystal Palace School of Art, Science, Literature and Engineering. Crystal Palace is still following that tradition today of championing the arts and this is recognised through the Crystal Palace Artists Open House weekends. The Triangle today is home to a vibrant mix of artists, makers, galleries, arts and crafts shops, plus independent retailers, restaurants, coffee shops, bars, pubs, and vintage markets.
