Wrexham Old Library Refurbishment Continues Aiming for Creative Hub

The old building on Queen’s Square will get a new purpose. It will become a hub for creative work in the city, offering rentable space for people in the arts. These spaces can be used short-term or long-term.

This boosts Wrexham’s artistic goals. The building has three floors of space to rent, suitable for workshops or studios, and also offices and showrooms.

They plan to add a café with outdoor seating. The hub will help creative people in North Wales and make collaboration with schools and businesses easier. It will also showcase arts and tech.

The creative industry grows quickly, bringing in £1.4 billion each year for Wales. Turning the Old Library into the hub costs over £4 million.

The UK Shared Prosperity Fund helps pay, and the Welsh Government also funds it. A council leader said the building has history and that the hub makes it part of a bright future.

Another council member said they invested in the city and want Wrexham to grow and look forward.
