Visit Us
We are based in a grade II listed former textile mill on the outskirts of Halifax town Centre.
Our building is beautiful, spacious, full of history and bursting with creativity.
It is also a ‘naturally cold’ working space for artists and creatives so we recommend wrapping up warm in practical clothing when visiting to take part in our activities.
