Spring/Summer Newsletter At The Northern we like to keep future students up to date with what is happening on campus and beyond. In this newsletter we give you feel for the social side of life in our part of the north as well as an idea of the ways our students reach wider audiences.
ConTemporary The Northern is at the heart of the creative community in Hartlepool - a new ‘meanwhile’ creative space has opened on Church Street called The ConTemporary – this combines a flexible gallery area with a social space for creatives to get together. The space opened in March with a two week exhibition by second year Fine Art Students – Generation Dystopia – which was curated and built by the students working with a professional curator (our second year students get this external gallery experience as a part of their course). The space will go on to host regular events and will be the site of a two week residency as part of The Northern Festival of Illustration.
