SET Hosier Lane covers 3,000 square ft of workspace provided in the Haberdashers’ offices, one of the City’s livery companies. It opened in December 2024 and is currently priced as some of most affordable artists’ studios in London.
The Haberdashers’ Company will be converting the old office site at 25 Hosier Lane. In the meantime, this vacant spot has been taken up by SET to use as affordable artist space.
At the moment, SET have 14 artists using the space, some of whom are former SET alumni who have moved over from our now closed centre in Kensington, along with the majority who are new SET Associate Members.
Amongst these eleven studios, four are shared. The studios include a range of art practices. These practices range from: painting, set design, graphic design, drawing and photography.
Over the past 8 months, we have had 100% capacity in the space demonstrating the ongoing desire and need for affordable artists’ studios.
Additionally, Associate Members at SET Hosier Lane are part of our newer network of SET centres based in the City of London. Hosier Lane joins our ‘SET in the City’ network of 6 studio spaces, along with our new SET Ceramics centre.
Partnerships such as these – utilising temporarily vacant spaces – is a key way to support the arts in London. The opportunity to have studios in the heart of London has been invaluable as we have been able to keep artist communities in the centre of the city at a time when London when is increasingly unaffordable to artists.
