The Turnpike Gallery

The Turnpike (Leigh) CIC is situated on the first floor Leigh Library, an iconic modernist building in Leigh's Civic Square. The Turnpike programmes regular contemporary art exhibitions (4-5 a year) and rolling programme of workshops, performances and events for all ages. Our purpose is to bring the very best art to Leigh, creating new cultural opportunities for all and raising aspiration and resilience across the community. The Turnpike was established as an independent organisation in 2016 to take on the curation of this purpose built well-loved arts space. Please note that Leigh Library and Life centre (ground floor) are operated by Wigan Council. Visit our website for exhibitions and events listings, or get in touch!
