How can creativity help build belonging in our city?

Join us for the London Art Hives: CREATIVE SUMMIT

London Art Hives is being developed as an open, drop-in creative space where unhoused and housed residents come together through art, creativity, and culture. Before launching the pilot, we are inviting the community to help co-design how this initiative should take shape.

Together, we will explore how a shared creative space in downtown London can foster connection, care, and belonging while responding to housing insecurity, isolation, and social exclusion.
