Kanvas Café

Meet friends, pause over a drink or continue a conversation after exploring the galleries. Kanvas Café-Bar is a welcoming place to spend time at BACKLIT, whether you’re visiting an exhibition or simply dropping in.

Open Thursday–Saturday, 10am–4pm.

Kanvas is the latest venture from the team behind Hockley’s established venues 31k, Skein and Yolk.

Kanvas is on the Ground-floor. Enter through the Main Entrance (stepped access) or the Lift Entrance (step-free access). The lift is staff-operated; please ask a BACKLIT team member for assistance when arriving and leaving.

There are no internal steps on Ground-floor. Accessible and ambulant toilets, alongside baby-changing facilities, are available on the same floor. Two portable hearing loops are available; please ask a member of staff if you would like to use one.
