UPCOMING: CUBITT CÈILIDH FUNDRAISER AT CAFÉ OTO
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥃🎵🪕💃🏼

Cubitt takes over Cafe OTO for a night of live cèilidh music, dancing, poetry, DJs and a fundraising raffle, helping the artist-run organisation secure a new permanent home.

A cèilidh is a social evening and cultural celebration common in Gaelic cultures, built around live music, group dancing and a caller guiding everyone through the steps. You do not need to know the dances in advance, and kilts are warmly encouraged but entirely optional.

At the centre of the night is a one-off cèilidh band assembled by friends and members of Shovel Dance Collective, with Cubitt Director of Programmes Seán Elder as fear an taighe, or master of ceremonies, and caller for the dancers. Cubitt artists, staff, friends and supporters will also contribute poetry readings and prizes for the fundraising raffle.

On the decks, raregr00ve is the DJ and broadcasting project of Andi Amirshah, founder of Cubitt Community Radio, a grassroots platform for local voices, independent music, live sets and discussion. Caprice Sühñ joins with nostalgic house, Bollywood and UK Desi sounds, q***r club music, disco and 1990s and 2000s pop.

Founded by artists in 1991, Cubitt is one of London’s oldest artist-run cooperatives. For thirty-five years it has provided affordable studios, a non-profit gallery and an education programme, while supporting artists and curators at formative stages in their careers. Its work also reaches beyond the building through long-running projects with young people, schools, older residents and communities across Islington.

After twenty-five years at Angel Mews, Cubitt is now working to secure a new home from which this work can continue. The cèilidh is both a celebration of what Cubitt has built and a practical way to help carry it into its next chapter.

Tickets are available through DICE at several levels. Those able to contribute more are warmly encouraged to choose a supporter or pay-it-forward ticket, helping fund Cubitt’s move while keeping lower-cost tickets available to others!

🎟️ Tickets start from £8 via DICE and cafeoto.co.uk

Join us tomorrow at our event for artist educators and arts workers. THRESHOLDS: CULTIVATING CURIOSITY IN THE CLASSROOM | 4:30-6pm, Tuesday 2 July, 2026

What happens when entering the art classroom becomes an opportunity to cultivate joy and curiosity?

In this gathering, artist Jasmin Bhanji and AMSI’s Head of Art Joeanna Omotesho will introduce Thresholds: a practice where the entrance to the art classroom is subtly transformed using material and sensory interventions. These have included disco lights and music, projections of waves, and glitter curtains.

We’ll explore how these interventions have invited new ways of entering and experiencing the classroom, sparking different kinds of conversations with students. This ‘consultation by action’ has informed curriculum development, shaped around young people’s responses.

Through hands-on creative activity, conversation, and reflection, we’ll explore ways to support meaningful engagement in art. You’ll leave with practical ideas and fresh perspectives to take into your own context.

This gathering is for teachers from primary, secondary, EYFS and SEND settings, as well as artist educators and arts workers.

Thresholds has emerged during Liberating the Curriculum (LTC), a two-year programme with Arts and Media School Islington (AMSI) that creates time and space to develop a flexible, diverse curriculum. By making space for slowing down and being present, we hope to support young people to bring more of themselves to their art education.

LTC is part of a long-term collaboration between Cubitt Artists and AMSI and is generously supported by Freelands Foundation as part of their Inclusive Practice Fund.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us on Saturday at Culpeper Community Gardens and Chapel Market to celebrate the launch of the 3rd edition of our Cubitt Community Press Newsletter 🌿🌀🗞️

It was wonderful to gather with contributors, neighbours, and friends to share the project, distribute newspapers, and celebrate the stories, places, and people that make Islington unique.

Together with local residents, we created a community map of the borough, marking more than 50 sites on the through an open call. From youth centres and cultural spaces to sites of radical action, local histories, and personal memories, the map connects past and present-day Islington through a collection of community knowledge — including a hand-drawn map of the borough.

Visitors also got involved with our limited-edition merch-making station, creating stickers, badges, and more, while Emmie — the mobile resource centre on wheels — hosted a temporary garden library for the afternoon 🌻

The newsletter was hand-designed, printed, and bound in Islington by our press group using the Cubitt Community risograph printer 🙌🖨️

Thank you to everyone who contributed, attended, shared stories, and helped make the day such a special celebration. ✨
