Organized by

198 Contemporary Arts and Learning is a registered charity based in Brixton. We are a venue for the exhibition of visual arts, a community hub and an arts education centre which opened in December 1988, contributing to the regeneration of Brixton following the race riots of the 1980s. Known initially as Roots Community and then 198 Gallery, 198 has grown from a community arts space, which helped nurture the Black Arts movement into a contemporary visual arts organisation searching out artistic excellence and investing in emerging talents with a particular focus on supporting the development of young people. We offer three core strands of engagement: Artistic, Education and Enterprise. www.198.org.uk.
