Jerwood Arts

The Jerwood space is a new and innovative facility in London for the creation and development of new work by young drama and dance groups and young artists. Located in Southwark Bankside, and created out of a former Victorian school building it is five minutes walk from the projected new Tate Gallery. The gallery has a year round programme of work by emerging artists as well as the established and prestigious Jerwood Painting Prize. There is also a Sculpture Space and Café. A film and fashion prize are two of a series of new large-scale sponsorships created by the Jerwood foundation that are being launched this year.
