Manchester-based Short Supply are turning 100 half-formed, saved-for-later ideas into real-life public experiments. It is funny, scrappy and deliberately low-fi - but beneath the fridge exhibitions and IKEA sculptures sits a serious question for northern artists: what happens when you stop waiting for permission?
Inspired by the 80th anniversary of the Tweed Salmon Queen, Our Wic turns Berwick-upon-Tweed’s old rituals of crowning into something new: a celebration of the people, work and quiet civic pride that keep a border town alive
This Spring Bank Holiday, Howard Assembly Room becomes one of the North’s most interesting rooms: a place where Leeds’ electronic past, Cuban rhythm, jazz improvisation and disco history collide over three nights on New Briggate
The 404 International Festival of Art & Technology comes to the UK for the first time this summer - and it is arriving not in London, but across Newcastle, Gateshead and Sunderland. For the North East, that matters.
