WHAT WE DID
Ugly Duck was a London-based arts organisation that supported under-represented voices and emerging artists.
Established in August 2012, its programme enabled makers, community groups, professionals, and the public to come together around unique cultural experiences and curated events.
SPACES
We provided spaces for film and photographic shoots, as well as conferences and product launches. We worked with artists through our creative programme and time bank to offer low-cost or free space.
Projects
We hosted events and projects in the spaces we managed, covering the spectrum of visual and performing arts. We offered a regular programme of workshops and managed projects outside our spaces.
Services
We provided commercial services to landlords, local authorities and other parties that breathed new life into spaces and created unique experiences.
