ASSEMBLE focuses on the rights of artists and the role of culture in supporting artists and communities with lived experience of displacement.
We believe that the arts and culture are vital in creating a more just and equal society. This is especially important as people and communities find themselves facing deep and interconnected challenges, including rising inequality, climate change and conflict.
In response to this we created ASSEMBLE - a programme that gives opportunities for artistic development and international exchange in the context of the global challenges and inequalities around exile and enforced migration.
Find out more about our residencies, opportunities for artists, and local and international networks here.

From Sanctuary and culture to Assemble
ASSEMBLE has grown out of our programme Sanctuary and Culture. You can find out about Sanctuary and Culture residencies and partnerships in the archive pages here.
