OUR STORY
“Everything you need under one roof” - Evening Standard.
Peckham Levels exists to create culture for the here and now. From our transformed multi-storey car park on Rye Lane, since 2017 we have built a meeting place for arts, enterprise and community action in South London.
Our eclectic public events programme features exciting grassroots performers and artists in music, theatre, dance, comedy, the visual arts and beyond. We prioritise work that is rooted in South London, Live & Interactive, Diverse & Accessible and Impactful today. We keep it local and accessible by offering discounts on tickets, food and drink to anyone who lives, works or studies in SE15.
Alongside our public arts programme we are home to hundreds of businesses, community organisations, and creatives, who operate out of our building. We offer co-working spaces and studios for individuals, supported rents for social enterprises, larger office units for established businesses, and free use of all our events areas to those with a workspace here.
We reach thousands of local people every year through programmes offering low-or-no-cost space and support to organisations and individuals from South East London. We offer workshops, talks and forums to help build neighbourhood connections and create the next generation of community activists and local leaders.
We do all this because we believe that if we can help create a neighbourhood with easy access to groundbreaking arts, an integrated network of businesses, and a trustworthy space for community action, Peckham will be an even better place to live, work and visit.
Peckham Levels was designed in 2017 by Turner Works Architects. Our colourful stairs were designed by AO Architecture.
