The Grimbarians Studio was created to be a space that is affordable and friendly for creatives to come together and work on projects together.

For too long Grimsby has had a lack of provision for creatives of all kinds, so we decided to step up and create such a place ourselves.

Situated on Grimsby's famous historic docks, our studio is perfectly placed to help us provide a haven for creatives to collaborate, socialise and create.

We regularly put on workshops in various disciplines and mediums and events that are suitable for all levels in a supportive environment so that everyone can take part.

Here at Grimbarians, as creatives ourselves, we recognise a distinct lack of creative provision within the Great Grimsby area.

The Grimbarians Studio is now available for hire, offering a versatile and fully-equipped environment for all your photography needs.

We believe in supporting the creative community, which is why we offer competitive pricing options for both short-term and long-term hires. Whether you need the studio for a half day or a full day, we have packages to fit your budget starting from £65, including a monthly photography membership

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to elevate your work in a studio that understands and supports your artistic vision. We look forward to seeing you at The Grimbarians Studio!

In recent years, Grimsby’s profile has seen a change with a wave of positivity thanks to local people's dedication and a growing faith in the area.

Grimbarians is more than a not-for-profit organisation. It is a creative movement, born to change the story line of the town and the way people identify the area.

Through documenting and showcasing the lives of local people, we aim to promote confidence in the area, increase pride and build a stronger, more positive reputation for Great Grimsby because #grimsbyreallyismore.
