Welcome to People's Palace Projects
 People's
Palace Projects creates performances, workshops, debates and publications
that push the boundaries of where, how and why art matters. Founded in
1999 and based in the historic East London building of the People's Palace
at Queen Mary University of London, we conceive large scale, multi-faceted
projects authored and shaped around ideas and collaborations motivated
by the power of art to progress social justice and change.
Current projects

on climate change and cultural resistance, People's Palace Projects
presents Amazônia, a new programme of work jointly conceived and
realised with the Young Vic.
