LCBA at 83% of its goal - 7 days to go!

The London Centre for Book Arts is an artist-run open-access studio and education centre dedicated to all thing books. Simon and Ira founded LCBA in 2012 with the goal of creating a space where artists, designers and the wider community could share resources and expertise to create and edition books and publications – becoming the first and only centre of its kind in the UK. A space open to everyone, regardless of background, education, or experience.

It is a wonderful resource and over the last eight years, it has gone from strength to strength. At Fenner Paper, we collaborated with the LCBA For our 2018 diary. 

However, like many arts organisations and venues, the majority of their funding stream was wiped out overnight due to the pandemic. All workshops were cancelled and the open-access studio remained closed for most of 2020. Luckily, through a combination of support from the community, SPACE Studios, and London Borough of Tower Hamlets, they were able to keep the studio running - to re-open in the future!

They have launched a Kickstarter campaign to reopen LCBA to the public and to create a new exhibition space dedicated to book arts and publishing ...and it's 83% there with just 7 days to go!

They are asking for your help to repair, rebuild and reopen the studio to the public after Covid-19.

Why don't you get a real "feel good" factor and help get the LCBA Over the line with whatever you can afford...
