U.R.B.A.N is Newports' new Arts and Exhibition space for practising professionals and the Arts community. In 2011 the 'Empty Shops Project' grew to become a great success, providing a creative outlet to many of the local artist and community groups through the use of workshops, local networking events, spaces to exhibit and overall helping to capture the spirit of Newport during the tough economic downturn.
With funds from the Arts Council of Wales and Newport Festival, the project returns bigger and better for 2012 with a new flagship space in the heart of the City Centre. At 21/22 John Frost Square you will find the newly formed U.R.B.A.N (Using Retail Building for Arts in Newport) project which will give space and become a creative hub for Newport's developing creative industry and social enterprises. While adding more art, culture and much needed fun and therefore footfall to our high street.
