Rich Mix

East London's home for culture and creativity.

We are Rich Mix. We welcome the communities of the world in East London to create, enjoy and share culture.

Open since 2006, we are a charity that connects some of the city’s most adventurous and diverse audiences to a vital, exciting and ambitious programme of contemporary culture.

Rooted in the city but open to the world, we champion diversity in everything we do.

Our programme covers every genre imaginable – from live music, spoken word, theatre, dance, talks and visual art in our performance and exhibition spaces to independent films, film festivals and blockbusters across our three-screen cinema. Through our creating engagement programmes, we develop and facilitate the creative potential of young people, families, children and wide-ranging communities from across East London.

Our diversity extends beyond our programme of events. A Shoreditch landmark, our building is home to 20+ of the city’s most socially progressive and innovative creative businesses and charities.

Storytelling is an essential part of Rich Mix. On our screens and our stages, our community exchanges stories, uncovers new perspectives and platforms different standpoints. From giant flower murals celebrating diversity in the NHS to photography reflecting the personal experiences of people in Tower Hamlets, our programmes give us all space to share the stories that make us who we are.
