Here at Grimbarians we have some very exciting news.


We are committed to supporting the creative sector in the Grimsby area and that’s why we are launching the Grimbarians Studios!


For too long there has been a lack of space for photographers and artists alike to create and collaborate in this area.


By October, the Grimbarians Studios will be launching and here to provide such a place for all of Grimsby’s creative sector. It will be right in the heart of the growing community on the Docks as part of the 'Kasbah' developments.


Comprising of a photographic studio and artist ‘hot desking’ it will provide affordable opportunities to work right here in Grimsby within a supportive community of like minded creatives. We are currently seeing the space stripped and transformed, by Steve from WE1 and his team, into the vision that we’ve had for a long time.


A space for people to create, a space thats been sorely needed right here in Grimsby. 


We want to hear from you on what you want to see from the Grimbarians Studios and how we can help the creative community thrive. We have exciting plans forming for the initial months of the space including workshops, socials and open days but why not drop us an email to let us know what you want to see?


Keep your eyes peeled on all of the Grimbarians socials for more updates coming soon and don’t forget to share this with all of the local creatives here in Grimsby - because always remember #grimsbyreallyismore


Thanks


A very excited Grimbarians Team!
