The Glasshouse is the place where artists and music fans meet.

Our new Artistic Partners will be curating and creating with The Glasshouse for three years, starting as we get ready to celebrate 20 years of music in a landmark year for our landmark building.

Over the next three years Corinne Bailey Rae, Maria Włoszczowska and The Unthanks will create new work, champion the music of emerging artists, and work alongside The Glasshouse’s Make Music education team to inspire and engage young people. These exciting new partnerships will spark new links between artists, audiences and venue in the North East.

“Music venues are unique as places for artists to meet their audiences and have that two-way dialogue about what they’re creating. It’s an opportunity for these brilliant artists to deepen their relationships with North East music fans and to create new work made in the region.”

Wendy Smith, Creative Director
