Descriptiontext

Raven Row is a non-profit contemporary art exhibition centre operating from a Grade I listed building at 56 Artillery Lane in Spitalfields, London. The organisation is housed within eighteenth-century domestic rooms into which 6a architects have inserted two contemporary galleries, and the venue opens free to the public Wednesday to Sunday, 11am–6pm. Its core product is an exhibition programme focused on established international artists and on figures from the recent past whose work has escaped London's attention, supplemented by live events (performances, talks, readings, BSL tours), a publication programme of catalogues and scholarly texts, and education-oriented programming. It does not operate a software product, platform, or digital service.

The organisation is constituted as a UK registered charity (number 1114350) and company limited by guarantee (number 5789471), governed by a board whose members include Alex Farquharson (Director, Tate Britain), Melanie Keen (Director, Wellcome Collection), Jenni Lomax (formerly Director, Camden Arts Centre), and Alex Sainsbury, who also serves as the organisation's programmer and as settlor of the Glass-House Trust, the primary funder. The customer base is split between a general public audience attending free exhibitions and a specialist audience of art professionals, scholars, curators, and collectors.

The revenue model is entirely charitable: the centre charges no admission, generates no commercial sales of art, and depends on grants and donations — principally from the Glass-House Trust — to fund its operations and programming. Activities are promoted through the website, an Instagram and Facebook presence, an email mailing list, and press outreach; physical visitation is the dominant distribution channel. Marketing is event-driven, with exhibitions, performances, and accessibility-led events (notably BSL tours) functioning as the primary audience-acquisition mechanism.
