East London Studio Membership
A creative hub where artists find the space, the people and the permission to create freely.
WHO THIS IS FOR
You make authentic work you care about. And want to be around people who feel exactly the same.
Pentonville Studios exists for artists, photographers, filmmakers, and interdisciplinary makers who want more than a place to sit — they want a community to belong to. A studio space where showing up every day means something.
For artists who are serious about their practice and open to where it might lead. Membership here is built around creative growth. A permanent base to create, exchange ideas, and the sustained artistic momentum that comes from being part of a genuine community.
The committed maker
You have a daily practice and need a permanent base to anchor it. Somewhere your equipment lives, your work evolves, and your ideas compound over time.
The collaborator
You thrive when disciplines collide. You want to drop into a session, spark something with someone you weren't expecting to meet, and leave with an idea you couldn't have had alone.
The explorer
You're not precious about what you make. You want the freedom to test things, break things, and find something unexpected in the process.
THE COMMUNITY
Six resident artists. An
ever-expanding cast of
collaborators.
At the heart of the studio are six resident visual artists, each with a permanent presence in the arch. Their daily practice shapes the energy of the space, anchoring a wider community of creatives who come through the doors. Artists, photographers, filmmakers, musicians, writers, stylists, and underground personalities whose paths cross, combine, and collide.

MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS
Find the level that fits
how you work.
Every option gives you access to a creative community, a professional environment, and a studio space that takes what you do seriously. The right tier depends on how central you want the studio to be in your daily life.

The deepest level of membership. A permanent place within the studio and the community. Includes:
A permanent desk within the studio
A large private equipment & kit storage cupboard
4 personal studio shoot days per month
A place within the studio's core creative community

Dedicated Desk
Your own permanent desk in our shared East London studio. A reliable base without the full residency commitment.

Up to 10 desk days each month.
Flexible access that fits around the rhythm of your practice.
DAY TO DAY
What it actually feels
like to be here.
The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and independent. Genuinely creative without feeling corporate. It's a real working studio where people can focus, make things happen, and feel part of something.
Members share a private WhatsApp group to exchange ideas, share opportunities, and stay connected day to day. There's always something in motion : a test shoot, a late edit, a conversation that turns into something unexpected.
What matters here isn't perfection. It's exploration. The freedom to try things, break things, rebuild things, and discover something you weren't looking for.
"Come and see whether the space feels like the right fit for the way you work."
