Old Kings Lane Warehouse ... New plans for centre of excellence for fine art printmaking in Swansea  
 

Kings Lane Warehouse

Swansea Print Workshop is aiming to create a regional centre of excellence for fine art printmaking by converting a Warehouse in Kings Lane, Swansea.  This will provide a new home for Swansea Print Workshop to serve both artists and the wider community.

Swansea Print Workshop has conducted a Feasibility Study: to RIBA stage C to design a multi purpose community arts facility with a focus on printmaking and related activities as an integral part of a cultural cluster development in Swansea Housing Association’s Urban Village development along the High Street and Kings Lane, Swansea.

In October 2006, following a competitive bid process, Sarah Wigglesworth Architects were commissioned to undertake a Feasibility Study which would propose a design for the new home of Swansea Print Workshop and attendant community facilities on the King’s Lane site.

The envisioned building will house an ecological fine art printmaking facility, gallery and cafe, large drawing and lecture space, and a series of independent artist and residency studios to let.
