ABOUT THE GALLERY
Bethlem Gallery is a visual arts organisation in southeast London. We programme creative activities, projects and commissions to participate in, look at, talk and think about. Based at Bethlem Royal Hospital and working across South London and the UK, we support the professional development and socially engaged practice of our artists, many of whom have experienced mental health services. We bridge communities, aiming to make art an everyday practice and mental health an everyday conversation.
Bethlem Gallery Projects is a not-for-profit company limited by guarantee and an independent charity. Significant in-kind support is given by South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. We are core-funded by Maudsley Charity, and receive support from Arts Council England, trusts, foundations and individual supporters.
‘The opportunities you have given me are incredible and it's no exaggeration to say they have changed my direction in life and how I think about myself as an artist.’
‘The gallery's not doing decorative work. It's work that causes people to think, and hopefully to act differently.’ Bethlem Gallery Artists
