Studios and community:
Taking on a studio with ACAVA means becoming part of a wider creative community. As a charity, we work with local communities across London, and several of our buildings are home to programmes for families and adults alongside our studio spaces.
Studio holders also have access to professional development support: one-to-one studio visits on request, free tickets to ACAVA Talks, the opportunity to take part in your building’s Open Studio event, and a regular newsletter with resources and opportunities across the sector.
Licences and applications:
All studios are offered on affordable long-term licences with 24/7 access and no waiting list. We welcome applications from artists and creative businesses at all stages. As a charity committed to equal opportunities, we particularly encourage applications from disabled people and those from ethnic minority backgrounds, who are underrepresented in the sector.
