Coming together in force to celebrate International Women’s Month, South London Women Artists (SLWA) are presenting Sisterhood at the Lambeth Archives.
This free exhibition will run through March 2026 and marks 18 years of South London Women Artists, and is a testament of their solidarity and comradeship.

SLWA is a non profit association founded in 2008 to provide a platform to local women artists. The ethos of SLWA is to support, nurture, and showcase the artists’ work.
Today they have over 85 active members, a diverse group of local women artists, working across a range of mediums and genres.
The work on display includes painting, drawing, textile, photography, sculpture and mixed media. Each artist brings a distinct voice and practice.
The exhibition aims to convey South London Women Artists’ sisterhood and community through their artwork.
