One of the founding principles of elsewhere is to support the arts and entertainment and to provide a haven for the professionals from these industries. Many of our regular guests are active creatives within society and we have worked closely to support their goals in any way we can. One of these ways has been through the showing of local artists’ works on the walls of the venue. Another way is through collaborations in the form of exhibitions, screenings and interactive involvement.
