The development of the power station was completed by WPT at a cost of £4 million without lottery support, the art’s charity that owns and runs The Wapping Project. It includes the transformation of the Boiler and Engine House into dramatic new multipurpose exhibition and performance spaces.
Since opening to the public in October 2000, The Wapping Project has received critical acclaim for the transformation of Wapping Hydraulic Power Station and its diverse and specially commissioned year-round arts programme.
We sold and left the Wapping Hydraulic Power Station in December 2013 to move onto our ungrounded, international way of working focusing on commissioning and producing new work.
