Marcus Garvey Centre, Community center in Lenton, England
The Marcus Garvey Centre occupies a Grade II listed building featuring an exterior frieze depicting cherubs constructing bicycles on Lenton Boulevard in Nottingham.
Built in 1931 by architect Thomas Cecil Howitt, the structure initially served as the headquarters for the Raleigh Bicycle Company before its transformation in 1981.
The venue functions as a central gathering point for the African Caribbean community, offering spaces for performances, celebrations, and social interactions throughout the year.
The center accommodates up to 800 people and maintains regular opening hours, with event bookings available through telephone number 01159792906 or online platforms.
At the apex of the stage within the ballroom, visitors can spot an original 'R' symbol from the Raleigh Bicycle Company era.
