About the Foundation

Islington Mill Foundation supports creative people to learn, grow, and build sustainable ways of living and working together.

Originally established to advance art and culture for public benefit, the Foundation continues to provide space, resources, and programmes that support artists, makers, and communities to develop their practice and connect with others.

Today, our work focuses on creative education, peer learning, and community-led activity. We support people to share knowledge, experiment, collaborate, and build skills that strengthen both individual practice and collective wellbeing.

Through studios, workshops, residencies, and shared spaces, we create environments where creativity can thrive and where people feel supported to explore new ideas, learn from one another, and contribute to a wider cultural ecosystem.
