The arts play a key role in community cohesion and wellbeing. We are dedicated to dismantling barriers to the arts for the people of Peckham and beyond. Every year we share our space, expertise and resources, opening up access to the dramatic arts for all ages and abilities, while simultaneously learning from and collaborating with the vibrant cultural ecology on our doorstep.
