Grand Junction is a venue for arts, culture, and community, based at St Mary Magdalene Church. We create and present an eclectic programme of music, arts, and heritage for young people, families, and adults. We also have a café serving delicious food overlooking the canal, as well as meeting and event spaces available for hire.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The Nave will be closed for building works from Monday 20 April to Friday 26 June. Our weekly classes that usually take place in the Nave will continue as normal in other spaces at Grand Junction.

Where to find us:
