Haggerston Studios house art gallery spaces run by Stour Galleries. Our focus lies on London contemporary visual artists, art educators, performers, musicians and educational programmes. We facilitate art workshops related to the current art exhibitions and art events that are led by the exhibiting artists or our curators. Haggerston Gallery also hosts academic events organised by universities or local schools that provide students and young people with learning skills opportunities or widen their networking skills. Through providing our gallery spaces for Graduate Art Exhibitions, art talks and art lectures, Stour curators and creators welcome student groups from different art or non-art academic courses and facilitate lectures based on their academic needs. The Gallery also maintains more than 100 artworks representing East London artists in The Stour Permanent Collection. www.stourgalleries.co.uk
