Renew Newcastle has been established to find short and medium term uses for buildings in Newcastle's CBD that are currently vacant, disused, or awaiting redevelopment. Renew Newcastle aims to find artists, cultural projects and community groups to use and maintain these buildings until they become commercially viable or are redeveloped. Renew Newcastle is not set up to manage long term uses, own properties or permanently develop sites but to generate activity in buildings until that future long term activity happens.

Renew Newcastle is currently calling for the first round of expressions of interest from artists, community groups and creative enterprises with ideas for projects in the empty shops and offices in Newcastle.

Proposals will be prioritised, shortlisted and then taken to property owners and business groups who are interested in partnering with Renew Newcastle to host initiatives.

If you think you have an idea that is suitable, then visit the propose a project section of the website below to find out what you need to do.

There is no fixed deadline for applications but projects submitted by Sunday 2nd of November will be considered for the first round. We realise this is very soon but the sooner we have projects, the sooner we can start placing them.
