went to the loveliest linoprint workshop ran by marianne storer in here! such a hidden gem but beautifully clean and well kept, with the most welcoming employee at the door. the environment was overall really inviting and space, and it being in a quieter area made it feel like youre transported to another little world ❤️ loved every second i was there!!
What an extraordinary gallery. A bit of a hidden gem and a must visit place. Currently they have an exhibition on by the incredibly talented Jude Wainwright. Went in today and was blown away with her work. Fantastic. But get in soon as in closes 11th May. Dont miss this.
I recently hired this space for an art exhibitin of new paintings. The whole process from start to finish was extremely easy and very well organised. Kan is the perfect host and made the whole event an enjoyable experience. The gallery is situated in a beautiful period building in the heart of Manchesters Northern Quarter. If you are an artist or collective or are looking to put on a creative event then I would highly recommend using Saan1! Its a unique concept in Manchester and its ethos as an independent contemporary art space is much welcomed!
