I have been studying in the cafeteria for two years now, and it really is a special place. Drinks are very tasty, and don't get me started on the cakes!! Absolutely fabulous. Also India working there is lovely and very kind. If you haven't tried it out yet I recommend you do, they also have wifi which is very useful if you go there to work/study.
The two installations were good. The staff is a mixed bag. Some were very pleasant others not so much. The visit was free but I had to book tickets through Eventbrite. We were never asked to show tickets though.
My second visit ever to the Camden Art Centre to see the Ain Bailey and Donald Locke exhibitions, for the second time. Loved the space first time round and loved it even more this time, which allowed me more focus on these exhibitions, which I thoroughly recommend. Immersive and powerful, both. (I did suggest to the gallery staff that Ain's The Wedding Album film is signposted from the landing, it is such a beautiful piece and in a perfect place, it would be a real shame for visitors to miss it).
After my first visit back in 3-4 years ago,I made my way back to Camden Art Centre today 🙌 The last time I visited an art gallery was in Barcelona this past Spring, so it felt wonderful to dive back into the vibrant art scene right here in my neighbourhood. 🌿 The current exhibition, “All Rendered Truth” by Lonnie Holley, was a standout experience. Holley’s work is deeply evocative, blending raw emotion with intricate storytelling. His paintings are rich with texture and colour, each one telling a unique story that draws you in and makes you reflect. The visual/video art was even more captivating, combining powerful imagery with thought-provoking themes. It’s an exhibition that lingers in your mind long after you leave the gallery. ✨ Post-exhibition, the staff kindly asked me to fill out a survey, and in return, I got a coupon for a free hot drink at their lovely café. ☕ I remembered the café and garden from my last visit, and they’re still as charming as ever. It’s clear why so many locals come here for a peaceful moment. It felt wonderful to reconnect with art so close to home. If you haven’t been in a while, I highly recommend a visit! 👍🎉👍🎉
Absolutely love this place! A little oasis amongst the hustle and bustle of Finchley Road. The exhibition spaces are beautiful and the cafe is faultless. Lovely beer on tap and delicious sandwiches and cakes. Great environment to work in, with adjoining garden. It also has a ceramics studio and well-stocked gift shop full of interesting books. Caught a couple of exhibitions whilst there and, although small, well worth it. Staff are lovely and the service was fast and efficient. They don’t do takeaway coffees but not a problem for us since we love the cafe and garden anyway!
