New Proposals - Expressions of Interest now accepted [20.07.2010]

We’ve been happily overwhelmed with the numbers of people still enquiring – daily! – about opportunities for space for their project or creative enterprise. So we’ve been working on ways to better manage the application process – to keep abreast of all of the good ideas for projects which are out there in the community, as well as keeping contact with the great people who are wanting to participate in Renew Newcastle.

Submit an Expression of Interest

Are you looking for space for your art project or creative enterprise or cultural activity? We have now opened an Expression of Interest database to allow you to submit your project proposal to us at any time. Renew Newcastle is now accepting Expressions of Interest from individuals or groups who want their project idea to be considered for a space, via this online form.

Previous Applicants

We have received over 200 applications in the past 18 months, so we have not been able to satisfy the demand for space in Newcastle. But we are still working to get access to new properties. Previous applicants are encouraged to re-submit. As much time may have passed since you first applied, and your circumstances may have changed, we encourage previous applicants to refresh your project proposals and submit an Expression of Interest, if you are still interested in participating.

Information Night

We are holding an Information Night on Wednesday 4th August to give an update of what Renew Newcastle is working on and to talk about this new process. We encourage people who have already submitted an application and those considering putting in an application to attend. Details
