Immersed in London history

Located in Southwest London, our building has been part of community life for more than 125 years. Originally Battersea Town Hall, it has hosted suffragette meetings, the voting in of John Archer as the first Black mayor of a London borough, and galas supporting survivors of the Titanic. When the building faced demolition 50 years ago, the community came together to save it, and Battersea Arts Centre was born.

Events that give back to the Community

When you choose BAC, you're supporting an independent charity and cultural organisation at the heart of the local community. Income generated through event hires helps maintain this extraordinary historic building and directly supports year-round artistic and community programmes.

Studio One is a space for workshops, rehearsals, movement sessions, creative development, meetings, and training days. It features a sprung floor and large windows bringing in natural light.

With its open layout and flexible setup options, Studio One works for activities requiring space to move, collaborate, and create. The room provides a setting for team away days, wellbeing sessions, performances, classes, and private events.
