Creative Thinking
“My muse is Pennine Lancashire!”
Amused? Don’t laugh out loud.
We hope you’ve cottoned on that Pennine Lancashire is an inspiring place.
It’s proved a natural and strategic choice for creative industries, artists, designers and entrepreneurs to make their home and workplace.
We offer the best in contemporary art, craft and design at our galleries.
If visual and performance events appeal … there’s always a lot going on.
We celebrate art as an integral part of our environment. See Panopticons Trail.
We nurture new creative businesses. See Creative Lancashire for details of a valuable stepping-stone to bespoke advice and services ranging from developing new markets to product development.
There’s even a special post for our region – Ed Matthews-Gentle is the Creative Industries Development Officer for Pennine Lancashire.
And we have a wider vision – to embed creativity in all we do. To ensure the best in urban and rural design is built in, not bolted on.
Pennine Lancashire is currently hosting an international design competition to create significant public spaces in our main towns.
Could we tap in to your creative and commercial potential?
