what we do

A home for creativity, connection and community in Loughborough

creativity → community

The Generator started as a simple spark of an idea from local people who wanted a place where creativity could truly belong in Loughborough. What began as a dream has grown into a community led arts venue at the heart of the town, offering exhibitions, workshops, live music, performances, nightlife and much more.
