Sunderland Culture

Sunderland Culture is a new organisation created to bring together Sunderland’s most important cultural assets and activities and realise the ambition of a city brimming with creative potential. We operate National Glass Centre and Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens, Sunderland Stages, Sunderland Cultural Partnership, Arts Centre Washington and The Fire Station, with a combined audience of over 700,000. In addition, we run cross-city programmes such as the recent UK City of Culture bid and our Great Place Scheme. Our mission is to improve life for everyone in Sunderland through culture.
