SPIT & SAWDUST IS A COMMUNITY SPACE IN CARDIFF THAT HOUSES A SKATE PARK, CAFÉ, ART SPACE AND STUDIOS.

Established in 2014, Spit & Sawdust is run by 2 artists and a skateboarder whose aim is to offer a unique and welcoming cultural, creative and social space in the city. We’re located just off a busy dual carriageway through a bleak retail park, but when you find us, you’ll forget all about that...

Becca, Christian, and Nia are the folk who run Spit & Sawdust, supported by an excellent team who help make the space what is it.
