Pretty // Vacancy

Our high street transformation project is full speed ahead. With the demolition works completed, we are now beginning to bring in our network of carpenters, builders, plasterers and electricians to get the shop into a rentable state. Fabrication of the furniture should be starting soon too! Here’s a few before and afters, stay tuned for more!

Make // Yourself

So our first trial workshops have been going ahead recently, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Ryan brought some friends along to the workshop and showed them how to make these awesome push along toys, each designed and made individually using our bandsaw, disc sander and router table.

If you would like to join a course, please drop me an email at [email protected] and we can get you signed up! Lots of different courses coming up over the next few months!

Adapt // Overcome

The last two years have been really tough on leisure and arts facilities like The Albion Workshop, but our city's high streets have been suffering for much longer than that, with online shopping and changes in the economy making huge dents in what were once thriving shopping destinations. We have always looked at the empty shop fronts in the city with dismay, wondering how we can be part of the solution.

So we are really pleased to announce we are teaming up with Vacancy Atlas to help create a new pop up shop space in the city centre. The project forms part of the Meanwhile Use initiative, led by Plymouth Culture and supported by and Plymouth City Council

The shop will provide pop-up opportunities for local creatives and start up businesses, with co-working and gallery space over two levels, with a workshop at the rear.”

Give a shout if you’re interested in finding out more.

A very warm welcome to our first new members of 2022, Norm, Sophie & Elaine!
