  • We are thrilled to announce the return of our First Thursday events

    Creative Debuts is relaunching its legendary First Thursday events and it’s coming back with purpose.

    On March 5th, we return IRL at Laundry Studios in Hackney, London, for a new chapter of our long-running event series, bringing artists, creatives and culture-shapers together once again in a shared space. Continuing our much loved celebration of International Women’s Month and after years where connection has been filtered through screens, this relaunch is a reminder of what happens when we actually show up for one another.

  • At Creative Debuts, we’ve always believed that powerful creative ecosystems are built through collaboration. As our programme continues to grow, we’re opening up our curators network and inviting independent curators, collectives and cultural producers to work with us across exhibitions, commercial projects and live events.
