About Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art

Vast converted mill with minimalist interiors, hosting temporary shows by contemporary artists.

Heritage Open Days is an annual event every September, where some 40,000 volunteers across England organise 5,000 events to celebrate the countries history and culture. This year, BALTIC is providing daily tours where you can discover more about BALTIC, the building and its history, as well as the local Quayside. All tours are free, and will last approximately 45 minutes.

Situated on the south bank of the River Tyne in Gateshead, England, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, a former flour mill, consists of 2,600 square metres of art space, making it the UK’s largest dedicated contemporary art institution.
