Common Practice

Common Practice, London is an advocacy group working for the recognition and fostering of the small-scale contemporary visual arts sector in London.

There are links here for a range of good non-profit arts organizations in London.  These are spaces worth seeing and keeping track of in London.  This link comes from the site for Gasworks, a non-profit space in South London.
