Welcome to Cockpit Arts

Cockpit Arts is London’s leading studios for contemporary crafts and the UK’s only business incubator for makers and designers. We are home to over 140 independent creative businesses at our sites in Deptford and Holborn. Through public showcases and business incubation services, we provide exceptional makers and materials-based artists with the tools to succeed.

Implications of Covid-19 on Cockpit and our makers
Our studios are open for makers who can work safely without contact with others, some are working from home and many are engaged in producing essential PPE. All our makers are impacted by the cancellation of shows, fairs, events, exhibitions and commissions. You can support them by buying direct – their contact details are in our maker directory – while a donation to Cockpit Arts will ensure the survival of a community of 147 craftspeople.
