Art and Architecture
Formerly housed on the Manchester Metropolitan University's campus, Alsager Arts Centre had an acclaimed public programme of touring new performance and visual art work presented in two intensive seasons – September to November and January to March.

In August 2010 Alsager hosted the first annual Alsager Arts Festival.
Artist James Lloyd was born in the town.
