Salford Loading…

Salford Loading is a partnership between The Art House and Quayside MediaCity, working to reinvigorate empty units in the heart of the city of Salford.

Salford Loading is a Well Placed temporary use space project which has been running at Quayside MediaCity since 2022. The Art House takes on units which are currently under-used and, together with community partners, give them a new lease of life.

This project helps to facilitate the amazing creativity in Salford and provide the space and support for that to grow. In a struggling economy, it is vital that creatives and communities still have the opportunity to grow, and supporting local has never been more important. We want to create a new kind of ecosystem within the shopping centre environment that sees spaces used in a cycle of both community and commercial use, benefiting everyone who takes part.

The project is currently home to 10 different artists, social enterprises and community based charities.

Our spaces are only as good as the people who use them, so if you need space to bring your creative ideas to life then get in touch!
