The Studio

We are Rich Mix. We welcome the communities of the world in East London to create, enjoy and share culture.

Open since 2006, we are a charity that connects some of the city’s most adventurous and diverse audiences to a vital, exciting and ambitious programme of contemporary culture.

Rooted in the city but open to the world, we champion diversity in everything we do.

Our programme covers every genre imaginable – from live music, spoken word, theatre, dance, talks and visual art in our performance and exhibition spaces to independent films and blockbusters across our three-screen cinema. Through our learning and participation programmes, we develop and facilitate the creative potential of young people, families, children and wide-ranging communities from across East London.

Our diversity extends beyond our programme of events. A Shoreditch landmark, our building is home to 20+ of the city’s most socially progressive and innovative creative businesses and charities.

Everything we do is underpinned by our values:

• Open. We are open, generous, accessible and welcoming.
• Inclusive. We champion equality and diversity and strive to represent, reflect and respect different voices and perspectives.
• Collaborative. We work in partnership with artists, companies, communities both locally and internationally.
• Ambitious. We support ambitious artists and ideas in the belief that art and culture has the power to bring people together.
• Creative. We nurture all forms of creativity and we are also a creative force.
