The Community Space
‘Everyone has a story to tell. Barnsley, let us hear yours!’
For the last year, we have been listening to the untold tales of this wonderful town. Step inside our phone box, dial a number and hear the voice of someone unknown.
With drop in arts, crafts and writing activities there is something for everyone. Bring the family, try something new and let’s get creative! Come listen to these hidden stories of Barnsley and maybe tell your own.
Calling Barnsley is a unique collaborative project that brings together the creativity of Barnsley College students and the voices of the vibrant Barnsley community. This ambitious project has transformed a classic phone box into a dynamic storytelling space, offering a captivating glimpse into the heart of Barnsley through 30 powerful monologues that reflect the rich and diverse stories of the town
Storying Barnsley is Barnsley Council’s Cultural Development Fund project (CDF). The Cultural Development Fund is a Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) fund administered by Arts Council England.
