Hello donors, Partisan are proud and excited to announce that we now have a permanent space to call our own! We are moving into a space at 19 Cheetham Hill Road: a central location, with great transport links. We'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported our crowdfunder: without you we could not have made this happen! To celebrate and launch our permanent space, we are planning an open weekend on July 28-30th, featuring music, art, film, discussions, workshops and more! Details will be released over the next week or so: make sure to check out our Facebook page for more information. If you'd like to get involved in organising the weekend, performing, putting on a workshop, or anything else, join us at our open meeting this Saturday at 4pm, at 19 Cheetham Hill Road. We can't wait to see you at Partisan!
Hello wonderful Partisan friends and supporters! It's been a little while since we last updated you on our progress in finding a permanent home in Manchester. Since December, we've been going on many viewings and looking at properties in Ancoats, Salford, and other areas of Manchester. In mid-January we found a potential space in the Northern Quarter. Over the next month we focused our efforts on securing this space, but unfortunately were not able to reach an agreement with the owners. But we are not disheartened! We will take on what we learned from this experience to the next venue that we approach, and are still positive that we will be able to secure a space in the near future. If you know of a space for rent in Manchester that would suit our needs, get in touch! And keep an eye on our social media channels for updates on upcoming fundraisers, campaigns, and our progress with finding a permanent venue. We've had a great takeover on our Instagram this month that has provided a lot of ideas and inspiration. And finally, a big thank you again. We wouldn't be able to do any of this without your generosity and support!
Thank you so much for donating to Partisan! We reached our target in record time and your donations will be with us by the end of the week. Whats next for Partisan? The collective will be taking a little break over Xmas to recharge our batteries after a busy 2016. Then, we will get back to work finding and putting a deposit down on our permanent space. We will keep you up to date with space developments through SpaceHive and our social media channels. If you want to find out more about what we are up to, or get more involved in the collective, then drop an email to [email protected] to sign up to the Partisan Collective mailing list. Also, as donors you have all received Partisan membership for 2017 and will be able to pick up your 'thank you' tote bag at our launch party next year (we'll remind you, don't worry). Thanks again for helping us to reach our goal and make Partisan a reality!
