what3words: dined.cloud.refers

Established by Lee Alexander McQueen to support the most fearless creative minds of the future, Sarabande provides heavily subsidised studios for artists across two sites in London. The Tottenham site opened in 2023 and sits within two restored Georgian townhouses, part of the historic Northumberland Terrace and in stark contrast to the contemporary stadium next door.

About

Artist studios in a historic house

Usually reserved for curators and industry visitors, Open House guests are invited inside Sarabande's Tottenham site and the artists' studios housed within.

From painters and performance artists to jewellers and fashion designers, you'll get access to the studios of the next generation of London's up and coming talent - only the second time Sarabande's Tottenham studios have opened to the general public.

There will be an opportunity to visit Sarabande's gallery space, House of Bandits as well as learning about the heritage of the grade II listed building and its place within the local area.

This year for Open House, Sarabande will be sharing plans for their move to a permanent home in Tottenham in Spring 2026 - a spectacular grade II* listed building dating to the early eighteenth century, just a few doors up from the current site.
