Desk Scheme 2024 – Open Call

We are relaunching our Desk Scheme!

Our space in Bethnal Green offers us the opportunity to provide subsidised desk space for up to seven (7) artists, producers, curators, researchers and writers. This scheme has previously accommodated lots of London-based or visiting creatives and helped build lasting local, national and international relationships and networks.

You can see the current and past Desk Scheme users here.
