Creating a More Welcoming Gloucester Through Arts, Culture and Community
The Gloucester Sanctuary Network brings together organisations, activities, and opportunities that help people feel welcome, connected, and part of their community.
We believe that arts, culture, heritage, and creativity can help people build friendships, share experiences, and develop a sense of belonging. By bringing together cultural venues, community organisations, charities, and local groups, the network helps make it easier to discover what’s happening across the city and find opportunities to get involved.
Whether you’re new to Gloucester, seeking sanctuary, looking to meet people, discover local culture, or take part in creative activities, there’s a place for you here.
Through this network, you can:
- Discover events, workshops, and activities taking place across Gloucester
- Connect with organisations offering welcoming programmes and opportunities
- Explore arts, culture, heritage, and community projects
- Meet new people and build local connections
- Find ways to get involved as a participant, volunteer, or partner organisation
From family-friendly workshops and community celebrations to exhibitions, performances, social groups, and learning opportunities, the Gloucester Sanctuary Network showcases activities that bring people together and celebrate the city’s diverse communities.
Everyone is welcome to explore, participate, and be part of Gloucester’s cultural life.
