The Propeller Foundry Open Studio, October 3-4
Acme Studios is a wonderful 1920s industrial building on Childers Street, Deptford, which houses the Propeller Foundry, an artistic community stretching across a vast space. Tomorrow, it throws open its doors to the public. The organisers say:
This weekend, 80 artists will be opening their doors in Acme's biggest studio building. Built as a ships' propeller foundry, the building was also used as a paper bag factory before Acme began converting it into studios in 1990. On display will be a wide range of artistic practice in studios of different shapes and sizes.
The event coincides with the nearby Old Police Station's annual open studios which forms part of the Art Licks Weekend.
The open studios also coincides with the week-long Deptford X festival.
