Live Art Desk Scheme – Open Call Closed

In September 2017 LADA moved to a new facility on Mansford Street, (Bethnal Green, London). With 85% more space, The Garrett Centre has given LADA the opportunity to provide subsidised desk space for up to six Live Art Producers, curators, researchers and artists.

Flexible desk spaces are available on an annual basis, with the following benefits: free wifi provision; lift access and disabled toilet; access to photocopier, printer, kitchen; use of LADA’s mailing address; access to LADA staff for advice and other support; networking with other producers curators, researchers and artists; a 10% discount on any Unbound purchases; access to LADA’s Study Room. Subject to availability and timing space can also be made available for meetings and gatherings. Desk sharing is possible. We are not able to offer landline telephone access.
