Drawing Room is the place to discover drawing. We champion the unlimited potential of drawing to help us understand ourselves, each other and our world, through exhibitions, learning projects and a unique library.
Tannery Arts provides quality studio spaces for artists across central London, as well as offering them valuable support and resources at often critical points in their development.
Tannery Arts was first established by artists in a rundown Bermondsey Street warehouse in 1993. Our presence and ambitious public projects made Tannery Arts the forerunners of arts activity in the area, playing a considerable part in its rejuvenation to become the cultural quarter it is today.
