Creative studios to open in Brent
Creative individuals living in property to rent in the London borough of Brent will soon have a space in which to practice their skills.
Brent Council is set to launch a scheme in which free studio space is offered to artists, musicians, photographers, film-makers and architects.
All these people have to do in return is act as mentors to youngsters keen to learn a new skill.
Young people from Brent aged between 18 and 25 are being sought to commit two afternoons a week for five months to learn one of these creative trades.
The studios are located in empty office buildings on the Canterbury Road in South Kilburn.
A statement from Brent Council reads: "The aim of the … programme is to complement the physical regeneration taking place by improving local skills and spaces for the community."
In other Brent-related news, inspectors from the local council recently visited the Cock Tavern Theatre Company and found that the premises did not have an entertainments licence.
