WHAT THE HECK IS ASSEMBLY HOUSE ANYWAYS?
Assembly House is an artist-led community arts organization located in a Victorian mill by the Leeds-Liverpool Canal in Armley, Leeds.
Since 2013, we've offered affordable studio spaces, career support for emerging artists, and developed creative projects for our local community. Our commitment to showcasing diverse art forms from both established and emerging artists sets us apart.
We have exciting exhibitions planned this year, and we look forward to welcoming you to Assembly House!
COMMUNITY PROJECTS
We are passionate about inspiring creativity in our local community. For the last 11 years, our public exhibitions, workshops and activities are designed to do just that. We strive to create a vibrant and welcoming space.
We are passionate about engaging the community with art and creativity and have worked on a number of projects to make this happen. Working with local community groups to create outdoor sculptures, running free workshops for local residents, created murals for the area and in 2021 we held a month-long festival of art, film, food and performance exploring Black British history.
We believe art has the power to bring people together and to evoke emotion and thought.

SUPPORTING ARTISTS
Assembly House is an artist-led and artist-focused art gallery.
Our mission is to provide emerging artists with a platform to showcase their work to a wider audience. We also offer technical support and mentorship to help our early-career artists develop and refine their practice.
We also involve artists in projects allowing them to gain professional experience, as well as supporting artists who are not studio members through open calls for a broad range of projects.
