Lenthall Road Workshop

Lenthall Road Workshop was a feminist photography and screen-printing collective in Hackney, East London that operated from 1975 to 1990. It was founded by Chia Moan, Viv Mullett, and Jenny Smith. The workshop was a space for local community members, including many working-class African and Caribbean women and girls, to learn technical skills in printmaking and photography to make art and posters about their lived experiences and as a form of activism. Lenthall Road Workshop was part of a larger movement of grassroots community art workshops in London at that time, including See Red [Women's Workshop]. Posters created at the workshop have been exhibited at the Hackney Museum and the East End Women's Museum, and are in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
