Sparking creativity, empowering communities.

We are a venue for ideas, a space where creativity sparks connections and new possibilities take shape. A home for scenes to emerge and collectives to be nurtured with space, expertise and resources.

Interior of a spacious industrial-style studio space with high ceilings, large windows, and exposed white brick walls. There are wooden structures, scaffolding, ladders, and equipment indicating ongoing construction or setup.

We bring together artists, thinkers, and communities to share, experiment, and collaborate. Through bold programming and an open, welcoming space, we make room for fresh ideas to start, grow, and inspire lasting change.

We believe that art opportunities should be available and open to all regardless of geographical location, marginalised experiences or social economic background. We want to foster those sparks of creativity in order to enrich the lives of the people of Loughborough.
