Cobalt Studios

Cobalt is a grassroots DIY community arts project built from the ground upwards and run by artists to provide affordable studios, affordable community/arts space, affordable cultural events, creative learning and club nights. We believe; That everybody everywhere has a right to culture That culture helps with unity and belonging, creates communities and reduces social isolation That creative expression is important for our mental well-being, communication, connection and voice That culture is transformative That the arts enrich our world in a multitude of ways That alternative & experimental culture matters That we want to empower others to do it themselves We are… Open minded, open for all, keen to challenge – afraid of mediocracy and compromise. Eclectic and different each time, always expect the unexpected and the unknown A safe platform for expression/experimentation. We champion blurred boundaries, emerging talent, and diversity. Committed to dancing, escapism and banging club nights We have… A keen eye and ear for programming embryonic, fresh, original, curious, left of centre, odd, creative curiosity, story tellers, wanderers, risk takers and brave spirits And there is no room here… ….for marginalisation of any kind ever, inclusivity, opportunity and safety are paramount.
