AMP Gallery

Head down to Acorn Parade in Peckham and you'll find AMP Gallery tucked into a neighbourhood that's become absolutely rammed with creative energy over the past decade. This is a proper artist-run space — the kind of place where the people hanging the work actually care about what they're showing, not just what shifts units. You'll find everything from painting and sculpture to photography and installation art, with exhibitions that rotate regularly enough to keep locals coming back. The vibe is refreshingly unpretentious; there's no velvet rope mentality here, just genuine engagement with contemporary practice and the kind of neighbourhood support that makes places like this actually sustainable.
