In January 2022, Argent LLP launched a competition to transform a vacant building into a vibrant community space. From 53 entries, FishTank, a youth entrepreneurship social enterprise, was selected as the winner.

FishTank converted the 1,200 sq. ft. space into a hub for creative young people, particularly those not yet benefiting from King’s Cross’s redevelopment. The ground floor houses an exhibition space and kitchen, while the first floor houses a podcast studio, relaxation room, and collaborative studio. FishTank Workshop opened it’s doors to the first group of young people in September 2023.

FishTank Workshop is currently developing a public facing program of events and workshops, further strengthening connections with local people, institutions and businesses.
