Homespun, a Community-Created Art Project, Unveiled at Regent Quarter
London – 20 May, 2025: Endurance Land, a Member of Nan Fung Group, and All Change, an Islington-based arts company, unveiled a community-created arts project – “Homespun” – at Regent Quarter.
Following a series of collaborative workshops, Homespun is the personal and creative response of a group of local young women about their vision for Regent Quarter. Their creative outputs are showcased on hoarding boards within the RQ estate through words, imagery and poetry. Homespun was the creative output of a broader engagement initiative designed to ensure the community is part of Regent Quarter’s future.
Endurance Land and All Change hosted an event to officially unveil Homespun as well as celebrate the local artists and young women who collaborated on the project. The celebration was organized to thank all the participants for their time, energy, and input.
“It has been fantastic to see our hard work and creativity come to life in a public space and on such a spectacular scale too. Being able to access and learn about the exciting plans for our local area and to contribute our ideas creatively like this, has made us feel included and inspired.” – Young woman from All Change’s B Creative group.
Homespun is the first of many community engagement initiatives aimed at further integrating the local community into the future of Regent Quarter. The project also aligns with Endurance Land’s strategy to collaborate with communities to shape the success of the places we create.
The Homespun project was run in partnership with All Change and involved local young women, emerging creatives and Arts & Science students from UAL Central Saint Martins, working with All Change Associate Artists Francesca Beard and Grace Attlee.
Homespun is open to the public and is located at Regent Quarter, with entry to the courtyard through The Mills Fabrica’s main entrance of 36-40 York Way, N1.
