About the venue

 

Stanley Arts is one of South London’s premiere arts and performance venues, providing local community with a vital home for cultural expression and discovery. As a radically inclusive space they seek to foreground under-represented voices, providing artists of colour and LGBTQ+ creatives with a platform to reach out to audiences across South London and beyond. 

Stanley Halls were opened on 2 February 1903 (as Stanley Public Hall) to provide the local community with a public space for plays, concerts and lectures. It is a Grade II listed building.

 

William Ford Robinson Stanley (2 February 1829 – 14 August 1909) was a British inventor with 78 patents filed in both the United Kingdom and the United States of America. Stanley was a skilled architect and designed Stanley Halls buildings, as well as founding the UK's first Trades school. Besides this, he was a painter, musician and photographer, as well as an author of a variety of publications, including plays, books for children, and political treatises.
