London: our creative capital

6 Camberwell College of Arts arts.ac.uk/camberwell-courses Camberwell College of Arts arts.ac.uk/camberwell-courses 7 Camberwell is a uniquely vibrant area of London. But don’t take our word for it; Time Out magazine says A place for “Boasting an eclectic mix of trendy food spots, back-street boozers and inspired locals to fill them, Camberwell is every bit the creative hub its everyone art college would have you believe.” The college (right) is located in the heart of Camberwell’s hugely diverse community, whose energy underpins destinations like Peckham Levels, and the transformation of buildings like Copeland Park (bottom right) into studios, workshops and creative spaces. The college is part of this local community and so too are its students, who make the most of all of the opportunities it has to offer, like the rooftop Frank’s Café (below), for relaxing and enjoying a local life.
