Since its inception in December 2001 the Agency has sought to develop, in any way appropriate, the scale and level of activity of the creative sector in Lewisham and brings its resources to bear on a range of projects that seek to improve the 'liveability' of the borough. All this work is aimed to build on the specific strengths of the borough as outlined in a recent 'Lewisham Commission on Culture and Urban Development' report - making Lewisham the best place to 'live, work and learn' in London, but also the best place to be creative in. The Agency's work is divided across four strategic areas: Economic regeneration, Quality of the Urban Realm, Training and Education and Cultural development. If you would like to receive news and updates on arts events and opportunities from the Agency on a regular basis, please send an email to cla@creativelewishamagency.org.uk with 'subscribe' in the subject box.
