Upcoming Events

We are always busy here at Girl Gang – whether it is growing our own ideas and projects, taking on new commissioned work from partners, or cooking up exciting collaborations with local arts organisations and venues.

You’re never more than a few weeks away from an opportunity to join the gang and get crafty, chatty, creative or to have a dance!

Got an idea for an event that you want to run with us? Please get in touch.
