Peckham Platform Limited: A Creative and Educational Charity Bringing Communities Together
Peckham Platform is a creative and educational charity based in Peckham, South London. The organization was founded with the aim of bringing local communities together with leading artists to create meaningful and impactful projects that address social issues, promote diversity, and celebrate the rich cultural heritage of Peckham.
At Peckham Platform, we believe that art has the power to transform lives and communities. We work closely with local residents, schools, community groups, and businesses to develop innovative projects that engage people from all walks of life in creative activities. Our programs are designed to inspire creativity, foster collaboration, build skills and confidence, promote social inclusion and cohesion.
Our team consists of experienced artists who are passionate about using their skills to make a positive difference in people's lives. We provide training opportunities for emerging artists who want to develop their skills while contributing to our mission.
One of our flagship programs is the Peckham Platform Residency Program which provides emerging artists with studio space at our premises for up to six months. During this time they have access to resources such as equipment loans from our media lab as well as mentoring support from established professionals in their field.
We also run a range of workshops throughout the year aimed at different age groups including children's workshops during school holidays where young people can explore different art forms such as painting or sculpture making under expert guidance.
In addition to these programs we also host exhibitions showcasing works by both established artists as well as those just starting out on their careers. These exhibitions are open free-of-charge for everyone who wants an opportunity to experience contemporary art first-hand.
Peckham Platform has been recognized for its contribution towards promoting diversity within the arts sector through various awards including Arts Council England’s Catalyst Evolve Award which recognizes organizations that have demonstrated exceptional leadership in developing new business models or income streams within arts organizations.
We believe that our work has a positive impact on the local community and beyond. Our projects have been featured in various media outlets including The Guardian, BBC Radio 4, and Time Out London.
In conclusion, Peckham Platform is a creative and educational charity that is committed to bringing communities together through art. We believe that everyone should have access to the transformative power of creativity regardless of their background or circumstances. We are proud of our achievements so far but we know there is still much more work to be done. We invite you to join us on this journey towards creating a more inclusive and vibrant society through art.
