BERMONDSEY 223

Bermondsey 223 will be a new lens-based arts centre brought to you by the team behind Peckham 24 festival of contemporary photography.

After 8 years of successfully developing the UK photography community via Peckham 24, we are excited to announce our plans to open a permanent site at 223 Southwark Park Road in South London.  The new site will be dedicated to supporting the careers of new talent in photography and to arts education in the local community.

About the team

Bermondsey 223 is the vision of the team behind Peckham 24. 

Peckham 24 currently successfully operates an annual festival of contemporary photography which attracts 5,000 visitors to Copeland Park and Bussey Building in Peckham. 

What began as a grassroots, artist-led event in 2016 has grown into a major feature of the UK photography calendar every May.  

We are excited to reveal more about the plans for Bermondsey 223 at this year’s Peckham 24.
