We have a cafe and The Village Green shops - including a florist, The Hackney Peddler, and The Well Garden wellbeing centre. We're also lucky to have emerging theatre space The Hackney Showroom on site. The Hackney Downs family helps to nurture each resident on an individual level, creating links and opportunities outside of the old print-works.

Hackney Downs Studios presents Convergent Matter.⁠
⁠
Coming up at Hackney Downs Studios, 16 artists come together for a group exhibition that celebrates the physical act of making through an exploration of topics and ideas including mathematics, relationships and urban satire.
⁠
You’re invited to step inside to explore a world showcasing how side-by-side processes inevitably affect each other in the alchemy of a shared studio environment. Where the “matter” of each practice converges through collective proximity, revealing threads between the work when they are exhibited together.⁠

Across oil painting, photography, lino print, graphic design and repurposed industrial materials discover the many artistic styles and practices living within the studios. ⁠
⁠
Not one to miss. See you there.⁠
⁠
Opening night | Thursday 28th May | 6pm to 9pm⁠
Exhibition open daily until Friday 18th June | 10am to 6pm

As we look back on a remarkable year at Hackney Downs Studios and Lockside Studios, we’re celebrating the outstanding achievements across our community. ⁠
⁠
Here at Hackney Downs Studios, innovation has been in focus, evolving the site in response to the needs of our creative community. With the opening of The Gallery marking a standout addition to the Hackney Downs ecosystem, alongside seasonal courtyard events and an expanding mix of wellness, retail and food and drink, the site remained a vibrant hub all year through.⁠
⁠
Over at Lockside Studios, momentum built as 2025 marked our first full year since opening. The site came into its own through resident-led moments and cross-disciplinary collaboration, with Simmo’s at its heart, anchoring daily life for both residents and locals⁠.⁠
⁠
Looking ahead, we’re excited to see how our spaces continue to evolve and our communities grow. For now, take a look through a handful of moments and milestones that took place over the past 12 months.⁠
⁠
Wishing our residents, collaborators and visitors a very Happy New Year.
