"We are pleased to now be in planning for BALTIC to re-open in line with the roadmap set forth by the Government. BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead plans to re-open on Wednesday 19 May 2021, subject to the stages advancing.

We are looking forward to welcoming the visitors and communities we have missed so much through our doors, and sharing moments of re-connection. Booking details will not be announced until nearer the time on our website and social media.

We have four exhibitions ready to be seen when we re-open including the group exhibition BALTIC Open Submission featuring 158 artworks made by people from the North East. You can take an advance look at this online in a new Virtual Tour: baltic.art/openout"
