This website is being maintained as an archive of the twenty-year history of Slought. The spirit of Slought continues as Public Trust.
Slought benefited from our placement on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania and close proximity to its expansive academic communities. We opened our doors with visionary support from the School of Arts and Sciences, Facilities and Real Estate Services, and various departments. We enjoyed creative and sustaining support for our programs from numerous schools and departments across the University, and developed a unique partnership that crossed disciplines and public programs and bridged the classroom and the community.

Working in partnership with others, both locally and globally, was core to our work at Slought.
This desire to engage others in collaboration continually fostered new relationships and programs, extending the dialogue to a wider public. Our partners aligned with our values and helped us address where change can be enacted.
