We are Interested in exploring any other ideas you may have but will not be encouraging sales of bulk or wholesale items, bric-a-brac, pc hardware or software, DVD’s, video games, mobile phones.

For 24th April, the following events are confirmed:

Described by Andy Warhol as ‘hot’, pop artist Mark Wigan has built up a cult following all over the world and is known particularly for his illustrative and photographic work with NME and iD magazines and nightclub murals. On 24 April Wigan will be producing a new piece of illustrative art at Granary Wharf on a specially built 3D structure as well as showcasing and selling previous work including his own books.

Beginning on the 24 April, local storyteller Joe Collins will introduce a new series of urban story walks, initially based around Granary Wharf and the Dark Arches. These stories are original tales which have never been told in this way before, compiled from anecdotes and fables gathered by Collins over many years and together with a tour around key locations on Granary Wharf, he will entertain, enlighten and explore with visitors the history and significance of the area.
