Drop in / Guided tour
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.
