A brief look back over the month just gone, and what’s on the horizon…

At the start of July, Newcastle Contemporary Art hosted the Memory Studies Association's 7th annual conference. 

The exhibition, entitled Communities and Change was organised with support from Newcastle University Humanities Research Institute and brought together installations by local and international artists to explore the role of memory in communities navigating change.

Recently, studio holders Seymourpowell took on the Newcastle Contemporary Art gallery space to showcase some of their work as part of TechNExt Festival 2023.

Their Open House event offered a behind the scene look at their design and innovation company, fostering conversation around the future of passenger space travel and metaverse tourism.

High Bridge Works once again opened its doors for the Late Shows in May, with studios across the second and third floors showcasing their work, running workshops, supplying drinks and chatting the night away in good company.

With DJ sets from by Bishop (founder of Opal Tapes), and Paul Smith (frontman of Maxïmo Park) taking place in the gallery, a great night was had by all.
