Action Space is the largest provider of visual art projects for people with learning disabilities in Greater London. We offer a wide variety of visual art activities including painting, ceramics, sculpture and photography. We also run public art projects, please see our Finsbury Park Project in Past Projects for more details.

Where possible, we run projects in professional art venues. We currently have three Studios: Cockpit Arts in Central London, Studio Voltaire in South London and Croydon Clocktower, also in South London. We also run Complex Needs projects in Waltham Forest, Redbridge and Newham and Young People’s Projects in Wandsworth, Camden and Westminster. Please see our Projects Pages for more information.

Action Space projects are user lead - participants choose what they would like to work on and which materials they want to use. Participants exhibit and sell their work in high profile venues, which have included Battersea Arts Centre, Camden Arts Centre and the Affordable Art Fair. We were the chosen charity at the Fair in autumn 2007. We have permanent public art in Finsbury Park.

Workshops are lead by practising artists and supported by volunteers.
