London Road Network (LRN) is a nascent collective of arts and community organisations working to support meaningful, long-term change, building a cultural heart around London Road in Brighton.

Initiated by Vincent Dance TheatreQuiet Down There and Dr. Cara Courage, the LRN brings together Phoenix Arts SpaceLighthouseSew FabulousThe Rose HillMagnetic IdealsRadio Reverb, the London Road Area Trust and the University of Sussex.

The aim of LRN network is to identify, develop and expand interdisciplinary, intergenerational partnerships and pathways between cultural and grass roots organisations and the communities who live in, and transit in and out of, the London Road area in Brighton.

In July 2025, funded by Co-Lab at University of Sussex, LRN worked with Digital Media MA Student Julide Es to map the London Road Area, finding out which arts and grass roots organisations operate in the area. You can see the emerging map here.

If you work or live within the Cultural Heart of London Road and would like to get involved, please take part in our LRN Survey and contact VDT Administrator Gemma Morris to register your interest gemma@vincentdt.com

LRN is a partnership project with Arts Fundraising & Philanthropy, with support from University Of Sussex Co-Lab.
