What is People Print Grimsby?

We get asked this a lot, but People Print Grimsby is the continuation of Meet Us At Alberts project from 2024.

Our pilot project focused on the story of Albert Gait and the rise of his print company in Grimsby.

From our own research and the engagement of the public, we unearthed a wealth of information relating to our area's printmaking past.

People Print Grimsby aims to continue our research and public engagement to explore further into our rich history discovering other printers, and the sheer size of an industry so many Grimbarians aren't aware of.

We're located at at 7 Baxtergate, Freshney Place (in between Next and Waterstones).

We are open tomorrow (Tuesday 6th January) until 3pm, so come in and see what we're up to and discover the work of local artists too.

When Jill visited us at People Make Grimsby a couple of months ago, she brought with her some glorious memories of Christmas at Albert Gait, from the 1950s.

How magical it must have been to walk through those doors and experience the festive atmosphere and excitement.

Do you remember what Albert Gait was like to visit (or work at) during the Christmas period?

We would love to hear your stories.

Perhaps you remember choosing your own gifts from there, or maybe visiting was part of your Mum's Christmas traditions...

We're open tomorrow (Tuesday 23rd December) from 10am until 3pm, where you can share your memories with us, whilst browsing work by lots of local creators.

Find us at 7 Baxtergate, Freshney Place.

Once you've reached Waterstones, just go a little further and you'll find us. If you reach Next, you've gone too far 😉
