""This is a powerful example of what long-term partnership can achieve. Bringing Goldsmiths into the heart of Catford is not just about a new campus it's about anchoring creativity, learning and opportunity in our town centre. By working together, we're creating the conditions for Catford to thrive: supporting local businesses, attracting new visitors, and opening up opportunities for residents to connect with one of the UK's leading creative universities.""
""Goldsmiths is expected to enter a 10-year lease with Lewisham Council, while work to prepare the Old Town Hall for the university will begin later this year. The university's Fine Art and Design department needed a new site after needing to vacate its current location at the former Lewisham College site by July 2027. Staff and services currently based there will be moving to alternative locations, the council said, including into another building in the town centre.""
Goldsmiths' Fine Art and Design department will relocate to Lewisham Council's Old Town Hall in Catford after vacating its current site by July 2027. Goldsmiths is expected to sign a 10-year lease and refurbishment work on the Old Town Hall will start later this year. Staff and services currently based at the site will move to alternative council locations, including another town centre building. Lewisham Council positions the move as a partnership to boost creativity, learning and local opportunity. The project complements wider Catford regeneration, including a new pub and plans for over 100 affordable homes and public spaces.
