The artists are of the highest standard and this hidden gem of London's underground arts scene has been successfully running for 8 years. It’s only five minutes from Marble Arch, in the West End.

Pay-what-you-can at the door, £3 for a glass of wine, free snacks and delightful entertainment: music, theatre, film, puppetry, poetry, comedy, visual arts, acrobatics… It is impossible to explain the atmosphere and camaraderie that is present during Open Arts Café, the best way by far to experience it is to come along to the next event!

Some things people had to say:

“All in all, it was a great night full of jaw dropping talented artists. Maya Levy never fails to do a wonderful job picking the best artists and performers for her themed night which are always thoroughly entertaining.” (The Other Arts Review)

"However, it is Maya Levy’s compering that steals the show each time; her unique brand of humour puts the audience at ease and encourages the artists simultaneously. This is carried through to her songs – always tailored to the theme, they show off her beautiful voice and range whilst providing some comic relief each month." Annual Review
