Our Building

Assembly Arts are proud to be based in the beautiful Assembly Rooms, an 18th century grade 2 listed heritage building dating from 1759. 

 

The lovely Georgian building which is abundant with history and character provided a venue for concerts and balls and raised money to support the adjoining almshouses on King Street. 

​

In easy reach of both the railway and bus stations, the building is located in historic Lancaster city centre. We are just a short distance from the Marketplace Shopping Centre and other Georgian gems including the City Museum in Market Square, the Maritime Museum on St George's Quay and the magnificent Lancaster Castle.
