BALTIC: Garage

BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art is a major international centre for contemporary art, which gives a unique and compelling insight into contemporary artistic practice. Located at Gateshead Quays, it is a place where visitors can experience innovative and provocative new art, relax, have fun, learn and discover fresh ideas.

BALTIC: Garage provides facilities to businesses, individuals and students to engage in design and prototyping using a wide range of state of the art facilities. It closely reflects BALTIC’s mission to promote creativity.

The BALTIC, Gateshead College and RSA are all committed to this project in principle. To make this a reality, there are a number of actions to be undertaken:

• BALTIC appoints a champion from amongst its staff to take the lead

• Core partners set up small advisory group to provide support and ideas to the champion

• Gateshead College enterprise students plan and implement a public relations campaign to draw attention
  to the facility and to encourage use by businesses, students and others

• RSA develops plans to engage the Fellowship

• Champion seeks sponsorship

• Champion finalises budget, agrees contribution with each of the partners and sets out membership/ usage charges

• Champion plans and implements agreed changes to workshop and storage areas

• Champion acquires equipment
