London College of Creative Media to open new music venue
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 7 March 2017
A new grassroots music venue is set to open in Southwark as part of a newly built complex to be opened by the London College Of Creative Media. As well as shows by students, the venue will host gigs by new acts, as well as masterclasses by established artists.
The new building, dubbed The Music Box, will also host a classroom, and recording and rehearsal spaces for students.
“In 2012 higher education in the UK saw profound changes to how it was funded”, explains LCCM Principal Darius Khwaja. “This was felt most acutely by undergraduates looking to study arts, social sciences and humanities. As a result, students and parents are right to ask what they are getting for their money”.
He goes on: “At LCCM we make sure our students get an industry-relevant, academic education that retains its value throughout every stage of their careers”.
The building and venue are set to open in September.
