London-based charity Acme has been supporting artists in need since 1972. Over this time, they have provided thousands of artists at all stages of career with affordable studios, work/live space and a programme of artist support through residencies and awards. They support the development and production of art by reducing the practical challenges that artists face, increasing their ability to take creative risks. Acme is the single largest provider of permanent affordable artist studios in England, supporting over 800 individual artists across 15 buildings in Greater London each year.
