About Camden Black Creatives
Launched in Feb 2021, Camden Black Creatives is a network of creatives and cultural producers of African heritage, strengthened by the global call for equality and overt diverse representation both at institutional level and accessibility to resources.
Our mission is to galvanise support and spotlight the work of established and up-and-coming Black creatives and those from a culturally diverse background across the London Borough of Camden, thereby propelling more equitable representation of artists, freelancers and businesses in the Borough. CBC envisions a multicultural Camden where all individuals and organisations could have an equal opportunity in the Borough.
Through the promotion of Black art and cultures, CBC’s mission is to enrich and develop the community in Camden through diverse creativity, mentoring, education and sustainable commercial ventures powered by inclusive collaborations of artists, businesses and freelancers.
