For Assembly Newcastle, the fourth of the a-n Assembly events taking place across the UK during May and June this year, a-n has devised a programme of events with Newcastle-based artist Catherine Bertola.

In 2018 Newcastle and Gateshead will host the Great Exhibition of the North, set to be a celebration of the best art, culture and design in the North of England. What relationship and impact do such mainstream public events – and the institutions behind them – have on the artists who live and work in the city?

Join us for a series of events that examine how artists, their activity and communities help to shape the identity of a city, and how the ‘cultural value’ artists bring can be better articulated to create stable and sustainable infrastructures for artists in the future. Complemented by
a-n professional development sessions, there will be plenty of opportunities for networking and discussions with other artists and the a-n team.
