Summer Uni London is based within Tower Hamlets Summer University. Drawing on the expertise and passion of the charity, which was the first Summer Uni piloted in 1995, the organisation aims to strengthen existing Summer Unis and support new boroughs in developing their own Summer Uni.

Summer Uni London is a project partner in Iniva's Young Curators Course for Summer 2008. The project offers a unique opportunity for young people (16-21 year olds) to take part in a five-week course culminating in a public exhibition. The work displayed in this final exhibition will be selected from work created by young people attending Summer Uni London art courses.
