    Proposal

    Run your own thing here

    A workshop, a circle, a talk, a night of music, an idea nobody has tried yet, brought here and built with us. We have the rooms, the ground, the sound and the gear. A proposal rather than an application: no role or portal access comes with it, and proposing costs nothing.

    Bring it to us

  • Space of your own

    Enquiry

    Rent a piece of land

    A plot to set up a home studio, a craft space, a small shop, or somewhere quiet to just be. An enquiry rather than an application: no role or portal access comes with it, and the details are arranged in conversation. Planning a stall for a single market or event instead? That is the vendor application.
