Our Mission.

At Longsight Art Space, we are committed to enhancing the well-being and quality of life for the residents of Longsight and the surrounding areas through creativity!

OUR VISION

OUR VISION

We imagine a Longsight where everyone - no matter their background feels welcome to create, share and be part of something bigger.

We believe art has the power to connect people, spark new ideas and lift everyday life.
Our vision is to keep building a space where creativity is accessible, joyful and part of the neighbourhood whether through painting, conversation, performance or planting in the garden.

By working with local people, schools and community partners, we’re shaping a place that grows through collaboration, learning and care.
