Our Impact
Discover more about our work and how we make a difference in Deptford, Lewisham and beyond.
The Albany is the engine room for people to reach their creative potential, tell their stories and define their own culture. Together we will inspire new possibilities for positive change.
The Albany is an incubator for new ideas and initiatives. We are home to more than 20 incredible organisations who are delivering impact every day, and we are a hub for the next generation of talent – from our technical training courses to our youth record label, REZON8.
Our Creative Strategy places democratic, community-led approaches at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that art and creativity are central to how we connect with our communities. Our new Community Council are a group of critical friends who help shape the future of our artistic programming; and we provide support for local artists through space, funding, advice and guidance, enabling them to create, share and experiment with new work.
