About Us
Studio at 17 is a Loughborough-based collective and studio community supporting artists with lived experience of long-term mental ill health. Active for over 30 years — previously known as Albert Street Artists — we provide studio space, peer support, and opportunities to develop and exhibit work. Alongside our working studios on Southfields Road, we run Tangent Gallery, a public-facing exhibition space that showcases members’ practices and hosts regular exhibitions. Studio at 17 offers a supportive environment where artists can sustain creative practice, build confidence, and connect with wider audiences. In July 2026, Studio at 17 became a Community Interest Company.
