Background

The Vision

The Church of the Epiphany, Gipton has a long history of running projects to benefit the local community and has been supporting community theatre since 1997.

For the last six years our vision has been:-

"To develop a Community Arts Centre where community and arts based activities can help to build up self-esteem and social cohesion, to promote the well-being of the people of Gipton."

The Centre

• Our original vision in 2000 was to refurbish the church hall
• In 2002 we were approached by the Neighbourhood Renewal Team to “think big” and develop a new centre as part of the regeneration with the majority of the funding being provided by the Single Regeneration Budget and Leeds City Council capital fund.
• Planning delays and financial constraints meant that by August 2006 this scheme had become unviable.
• We have now reverted to our original vision of refurbishing the church hall and we anticipate work will start early in 2007.
