Awesome use of the old Newcastle lock up as a contemporary art venue - check public programs to make the most of your visit as always great talks and local community perspectives on art

Grabbed a quick coffee, looks to be a good place but I was only there for a few minutes. Would like to try it again some day I am back in Newcastle.

Love the simple art exhibitions they have on. A fantastic, edgy art addition to the city.

A truly fascinating part of Newcastle's history, the lock up has a number of immaculately kept former prison rooms. The exhibitions held there are also worth going for alone.
