Public facing facilities

Our Faculty is closely involved in exciting initiatives, which support learning and research for our colleagues. They also open up opportunities for members of the public to join in and contribute to our activities.

We have our very own art space on campus. The Hatton Gallery, was founded in 1925. It includes over 3000 works from the 14th – 20th centuries. The Hatton stages a programme of modern and contemporary art exhibitions and events, including artist and curator talks and family activities. Our students at Newcastle University work closely with the gallery and exhibit their work on an annual basis.

The Farrell Centre is a museum, research hub and civic space. Its aim is to increase public understanding of the roles that architecture and planning play in the contemporary world.

We also work closely with other local cultural and creative partners and venues, such as Northern Stage, Baltic, Sage Gateshead, Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums, Beamish, and the National Trust. Our collaborative work with these partners benefits the local community.
