Slack Space Colchester is a volunteer run initiative to create arts usage of empty shops and locations, in order to promote local artists, present new and exciting work to the public and generate a cultural buzz in the town centre. Our aim is to interrupt and enhance retail footfall with art and performance: To fill the slack spaces in our town with colour, art and laughter and to help keep our social, cultural and economic life warm in the chill of recession.

Come in, admire our displays and support bookcrossing all at the same time!

moving in mid-april to 19 – 29 Queen Street Colchester CO1 2PQ (the old shoeworld store by the bus station)
