the arc centre
The ARC is a grassroots community space in Islington, designed by locals, for
locals. Volunteers are the heart and soul of The ARC, running everything from
our Food Bank, which feeds 300 vulnerable people in our community each week, to
our vegetable gardens, where we grow fresh produce for local families. Our
spacious venue is home to our Weekly Programme, where people can join yoga
classes, bond at coffee mornings, and get their creative juices flowing at art
and drama workshops. We are also open to hire for events, meetings, family
celebrations and more. Our Coffee Shop will focus on youth employment, giving
young local people the experience and skills to work in the coffee industry and
beyond, or start a business of their own. Stop by for delicious food and drink
from sustainable local suppliers!
