Art in Perpetuity Trust
What Visitors Say
Attended the Open House and just fell in love with this Artist community. The studios in and of themselves are lovely, the artist are so friendly and welcoming and the art is beautiful! Am so looking forward to visiting in the summer and enjoying the art while walking around the grounds and enjoying the canal. An overall wonderful place for art lovers to visit.
An independent arts outfit run by artists and a charitable trust for studios ,a gallery of great proportion in S E London ,Deptford.

Fun Facts
APT was founded in 1995 by artists specifically to secure affordable, long-term workspace in Deptford and remains an artist-run charity.
The charity owns the freehold of its wharf-side premises on the banks of Deptford Creek—unusual in London—and maintains around 42 studios.
APT Gallery’s flagship juried show, the ‘Creekside Open,’ is selected by invited artist-judges, keeping the exhibition closely tuned to peer practice.
