Camden Arts Centre is a world-class contemporary visual arts space, dedicated to engaging with the highest calibre artists from across the international arts scene. Placing the artist at the centre, Camden Arts Centre strives to involve members of the public in the ideas and work of today's artists, and the artists who inspire them.

The exhibition and education programmes are developed with equal importance, and are continually intertwined. The changing programme includes exhibitions, artist residencies, off-site projects and artist-led activities, ensuring Camden Arts Centre remains a dynamic place for seeing, making and talking about art.

Exhibitions feature emerging artists, international artists showing for the first time in London, significant historic figures who inspire contemporary practice, and artist selected group shows relevant to current debate.

Residencies develop artists' practices with practical support, resulting in new work and public participation.

Off-site artists' projects include new commissions and performance in strategic areas such as King's Cross and in local schools and community centres. 

An unexpected treat, worthy of its billing as the most exciting arts centre in North London, its contemporary exhibitions and the majority of events here are free. The relaxing café has a great garden too.
