Harris Your Place Goals

A better welcome for more people – another 100,000 people each year with a re-opened entrance on Lancaster Road.
A more exciting experience for you and your family – with displays and activities blending art, history and books, showing off the best of Preston – and your links with the rest of the world.
Inspiration for Lancashire’s communities and for artists – with a Creative Preston Gallery to create and display your work plus a Children’s Space and Young People’s Zone.
Support for local jobs and businesses – Harris Your Place will draw many more visitors to Preston, supporting your shops and services  – and you’ll enjoy an improved Harris café, shop, meeting and events spaces.
All in a beautifully refurbished Grade I listed building – for everyone – and fit for the next 100 years of Lancashire weather.
