Passing Clouds, Music venue in Dalston, London, United Kingdom
Located on Richmond Road in Hackney, Passing Clouds opened its doors as both a music venue and community center for cultural gatherings and events.
Founded in 2006 by Eleanor Wilson, the venue operated successfully for a decade until property developers acquired the building, leading to its closure in 2016.
The venue presented African music performances and provided space for film screenings, workshops, music lessons, and dance classes throughout its operation.
Hackney Council designated Passing Clouds as an Asset of Community Value in October 2016, affecting potential future property sales and development plans.
Following extended community protests and negotiations, the building reopened under a new identity as The Jago, maintaining its function as a music venue.
