From its beginnings,
The Storey has been home to inspiring creative businesses like us.
We are designers, printmakers, artists, dancers, photographers, writers, coders, musicians, therapists, growers and more. Our creative businesses play a vital role in making Lancaster a centre for artistic and creative excellence. We are The Storey Makers.
Join us for a week of activities
Join us for a week of creativity, movement and wellbeing. From hands on art and dance to calming breathwork and practical workshops, there’s something for all ages. Drop in, try something new, explore career guidance, or simply connect in a welcoming community space.
A history built on creativity
Built in 1887, The Storey offered creative teaching opportunities and was once home to the Lancaster College of Art. Today, the Grade II listed building is a place for like-minded people, entrepreneurs and successful businesses, working to inspire future thinking.
