Sunderland Culture brings together the three main funders of arts provision in the city, Sunderland City Council, University of Sunderland and Sunderland Music, Arts and Culture (MAC) Trust into a single, independent, and resilient delivery model, to realise the ambition of a city brimming with creative potential.
We deliver the creative programme in National Glass Centre, Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens, Arts Centre Washington, as well as with communities across the city. In late 2021 we look forward to launching Sunderland’s newest performance venue, with the opening of a brand new auditorium at The Fire Station.
Sunderland Culture is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation and our mission is to improve life for everyone in Sunderland through culture.
