We believe in breaking the mould. We’re here to challenge the mass-produced, the impersonal, and the disposable by championing independent makers, fostering creativity, and creating a real, local alternative to online and high-street retail. Our mission is to provide crafters with a space to sell their work without the barriers of traditional retail while ensuring customers can discover authentic, locally made goods and explore their own creativity through hands-on workshops. We curate a space where people can shop with confidence, knowing they are supporting real artisans and small businesses. We empower people of all ages and backgrounds to explore their creative potential, and offer a relaxed pressure-free shopping experience.

We are creative producers. We are passionate about developing and producing world-class, boundary-pushing visual performance work in the Solent (where we are based), UK and globally. Our mission is to: Connect artists, programmers and communities across local and global borders and inspire cross-cultural exchange. Discover and develop new artistic talent on our doorstep and across the globe through a producing model that centres innovation, risk and careful collaboration. Produce world-class, boundary-pushing artworks, performances and creative projects for and with communities and audiences of all nationalities and ages everywhere.
