The Positive News Podcast, featuring SPACE CEO Eline van der Vlist
Check out the latest episode of The Purpose Pioneers podcast, featuring Eline van der Vlist, CEO of SPACE. In conversation with host Sarah LaBrecque, Eline explores the challenges facing artists in cities where studio space is increasingly unaffordable, and the importance of sustaining accessible, long-term creative infrastructure.
The discussion reflects on SPACE’s founding in 1968 by artists Bridget Riley and Peter Sedgley, and its continued mission to provide affordable studios for more than 900 artists across London and Colchester. The episode considers how such models of support enable artists to develop their practice, strengthen communities, and remain rooted in the places that shape their work.
