Events
We love to host a variety of events, parties, and classes in our space! & we are looking to host more!
We can host birthday parties, baby showers, wedding receptions, art classes, pottery classes, poetry nights, book readings, murder mystery evenings, musical performances, parties, talks, and more!
We have our own Events Co-ordinator, Angela, for you to liaise with about your event, co-create, and bring your vision to life.
And we are open to any and all creative ideas, and we would love to discuss with you how we can make our space work for you, and meet the needs of your budget.
Our space is customisable, we can adjust the tables and chairs to suit your needs or remove them completely; and we encourage decorating the space to meet your needs; should that be in keeping with your event.
What are you inspired by? Would you like to run an evening focused on sharing your event, idea, passion and purpose?
Catering, staff, and bar are all available to suit your needs…
Drop us an email with your idea and let’s see how we can work together to bring your vision to life in Belper.

Anastasiia Fedorova - Second Skin (non-fiction)
19th June, 2025
Anastasiia Fedorova will be talking about fetish and deviant desire: In 21st century commodity culture, we are all intimately involved with objects: we covet a Birkin bag; we keep trainers box-fresh. We are, in a sense, all fetishists. But occasionally this desire spills into something more subversive.
