This Saturday is our Open Day, giving you a chance to try out some taster classes and workshops, relax in our cafe bar, and enjoy our Art Auction and Cabaret in the evening.

The Art Auction helps us raise much needed funds for the centre. We’ve had a wonderful collection of pieces donated by local artists ready to be auctioned off. We’ll also be showing off - and selling - all the entries to our Postcard Project. Both the postcards and artwork will be on display at The Takeaway Gallery in the Harris Arcade until Friday if you want to take a peek.
