We recently spoke to Julia Thorley at the NN Journal all about our journey and our new arts space in Corby. Click the link below to read all about it!
Phase One: Building the Studios
In April 2024, RAG launched as a cohort of 7 local artists responding to the need for an accessible, community-run arts venue that encourages and supports local artists to work, create, perform, rehearse, and develop their potential. Between us, we have a range of experience and skills to deliver community initiatives.
Grand Opening
At our opening in June 2024 we held our first open studios welcoming people to see our vision and the new space. We asked the community what they wanted and needed from the space, and were overwhelmed with the support and encouragement.
Phase Two: The Alley Cat Theatre, Events, Workshops, and Exhibition
