A fixed monthly night builds its own community, and we promote each one on our channels.
Questions
Before you pitch
Can we screen films?
Yes. EM Gallery has a sound system for screenings, and the house has projector support. Tell us your format in the pitch.
Can the programme be in another language?
Yes. Exchanges and cultural nights in any language are welcome; tell us which in your pitch.
Do we need to charge entry?
Not necessarily. A night can be free entry, ticketed or a small class fee; we agree the shape with you.
Do you charge a venue fee for collaborations?
We agree terms case by case, based on the format. A free-entry night, a ticketed show and a paid workshop each work differently, and we'll talk it through once we've seen your idea. If you want the space privately for your own guests, that's venue hire, and our Private Events team looks after it.
