Open Call for Artwork: Office Building Wall Artwork Comission

Submission Deadline: 31st of August

We are excited to announce an open call for emerging artists to submit proposals for a unique opportunity to create a piece of artwork for the lobby of our new office building, which is located in the historically significant site of a former gin distillery in Clerkenwell. This project aims to celebrate the rich heritage of the building and integrate it into the contemporary design of our workspace.
