HIRE OUR SPACE
B.ARTS is based in a post-industrial building on the edges of Stoke Town. Our building is an arts, education and creation space conveniently located 10 minutes walk from Stoke on Trent Train station. It is a home to artists, creatives, charities and community groups and a place where you can meet new people, eat food and get creative! Spaces in our building are in regular use and in high demand.
OUR SPACES
Common Space
Upstairs we have an open plan office area, we call Common Space. It’s suitable for clean rehearsals, training days, meetings and more.
Café
Our community café can be hired for cooking, baking and food-based projects, charity and community meetings e.g. chatty café’s, dementia cafes or as a breakout space for your team to have lunch when you are using one of our other spaces.
We also offer a range of catering services!
Our in-house caterer Cher can work with you to cater your event both in our building and externally. She can come up with hot or cold food options for your training day lunch, create a bespoke party buffet, provide a range of hot food options to feed your hungry volunteers and more! So if you are hiring space at B.ARTS, why not book Cher to make you lunch too?
Workshop
The Workshop is our primary making space! Our dirty ‘creation spaces are perfect for making a bit of a mess, such as for large installation pieces. We can also offer access to our expert makers who can provide project support if required.
Middle Space
Our Middle Space is perfect for bringing groups of people together or for making larger pieces of work.
This large open plan, flexible space in the centre of our building can be used for
creation, rehearsal and performance of theatre productions. Please note it has a concrete floor so could be perfect for on tour rehearsals of an outdoor show.

It is a versatile event venue for celebrations and has even housed a wedding reception in the past.
It can be booked for a day, a week or a few weeks subject to availability.
In 2024 Greenhouse Theatre Project used B.ARTS Middle Space as a venue for their production ‘Anya & The Potter’ (pictured above).
“OutdoorArtsUK hired B.ARTS for our Away Day in 2024 and we could not have been better looked after. The team were clear and quick when we booked in, making the process simple and easy for us. On arrival for the away day, it felt like they couldn't do more for us to make us comfortable and the lunch they prepared for us was delightful.”
