The Regent’s Park Estate Story Trail is an exciting new resident-led Public Art Trail inspiring creative public realm improvements to the neighbourhoods of Regent’s Park Estate, Camden.

We are thrilled to invite Expressions of Interest from artists for nine new artwork commissions for the estate. The artworks will celebrate the people, places and many (hi)stories and assets of the Regent’s Park Estate community. Each artwork will act as a tribute to the area’s heritage and help celebrate the diverse and resilient communities of the past, present and future.

Come and join the Regent’s Park Area Safe & Healthy Streets Project for a fun, free and interactive co-design workshop and drop-in session.

Take a look at the photos from this year’s Regent’s Roots festival, taken by the wonderful Zbigniew Kotkiewicz and Claire Haigh.

We are thrilled to introduce the newest positions available within the ODAC team: Neighbourhood Curators for the Regent's Park Estate Story Trail.

One Fest is back! And it’s changing…

Since 2016, the One Fest team has gathered work from all over the world made by artists with lived experience of homelessness, for exhibition at Old Diorama Arts Centre. This year, we’re doing things a little differently.

We wanted to share some of the wonderful pictures taken by Zbigniew Kotkiewitz and Claire Haigh that helped to capture the friendly, happy, and supportive atmosphere that was created by the (approximately) 1200 people from our local community.

New Diorama announces that it will present no public programme for the rest of the year, and is supported by ODAC. as a creative partner.

As part of our expanding creative programmes responding to the needs of our local Regent’s Park ward communities, Old Diorama Arts Centre is excited to offer two weeks of performing arts based projects for children, as Camden Holiday Activity and Food Programme (HAF), supported by Young Camden Foundation.
