Somerset House is London’s working arts centre built on historic foundations around one of the most beautiful courtyards in Europe.
Situated at the very heart of the capital, it is home to the UK’s largest and most exciting creative community and is overflowing with new ideas, young businesses and fresh perspectives.
Dedicated to backing progress, championing openness, nurturing creativity and empowering ideas, their cultural programme is highly ambitious. Insisting on relevance, but not afraid of irreverence, they are as keen on entertainment as enrichment. Embracing the biggest issues of our times (recent exhibitions and installation have addressed climate change and the work of Black creative pioneers), Somerset House are committed to the delicate task of oxygenating new works by emerging artists.
