What brings you to the Albany?

We want to make sure that we're supporting artists and works that contibute to our core Albany values. We've listed these below - please let us know how you and your work could be reflected within these.

These are very general values, and we know they can be difficult to articulate at times! It's more important to us to see that you're thinking about them than to get the exact language right. We've included some examples in each box, but please feel free to interpret each value in your own way.

We're looking to support projects that fulfil a minimum of 3 of our 6 values, so you don't need to fill in every box if it's not relevant!

Open and welcoming

We foster an inclusive space, both physically and culturally, where anyone can feel welcome and heard.

A home for ideas, creativity and action

Everyone has the potential to be creative. We believe that creativity can make real change for individuals and on urgent issues around social justice and the climate crisis.

A connector of people

We put our communities at the heart of any process. We share our knowledge to shape change and create something better for everyone.

Responsive and flexible

We’re co-operative, willing to listen and adjust our approach according to the task in hand. We love seeing amorphous ideas become reality.

Committed to representing the extraordinary creativity and diversity of Deptford and Lewisham

We are deeply rooted in Lewisham and South East London. We advocate for its residents, representing the diversity of our borough and the voices of Black and Global Majority people

Adventurous and ambitious

We believe that a sense of adventure is essential to achieving our vision. While we are rigorous in our approach and celebrate our successes we’re not afraid to try something new.
