Aunty Social – new venue preview
Come and have a preview of Aunty Social’s new community art space on Topping St.
About this event
Coming soon…
A creative space that’s brimming with collaboration and community.
We’ve been working in Blackpool for the past 11 years and have loved helping people develop their creativity, learn new skills and meet new friends through projects relating to visual arts and crafts, film, arts reporting, learning and professional development and exploring local heritage.
Now we’re heading onto the high street so that we can bring everything together under one roof and provide you with a space to explore your creativity, whether you’re a beginner wanting to explore new skills or a more experienced artist looking to develop your work.
Where is it?
Our new space is located at 28 Topping Street, Blackpool, FY1 3AQ. It’s next door to Bootleg Social.

What will happen on the day?
Even though we’ll have some ‘pop up’ activity for Great Big Green Week taking place in the ground floor shop area, please note that we are not generally open as we still have building work to do.
- Guided walk around the building – please note that we may not have access to all areas as building work may be in progress.
- We’ll have illustrations and building plans available for you to look at on the day, so feel free to ask us about our plans.
- Stop for a brew and a chat.
Anything else I need to know?
As we are still building/decorating please:
- Wear comfortable flat shoes with covered toes.
- Note that the lift has not been installed yet, so you will need to use the stairs to access the basement and first floor.
- Please make sure that you have a ticket. For safety purposes, we have to be very strict with numbers. If we have any extra attendees, they will not be able to join the group, so please book a spot to avoid disappointment on the day.
- We’ll ask for a mobile number when you sign up. This is just in case we have any disruptions caused by the building work and need to cancel/postpone.
