This Is Not Art Festival is in it’s Tenth Year! The Newcastle annual Arts Festival begins this Thursday 1st October!

This Is Not Art is a supercharged convergence of writers, performers, thinkers, independent musicians and industry, creative researchers, electronic artists, dilettantes and DIY culture makers in a showcase featuring over 400 local, national and international artists.

There is also a zine fair on Sunday as part of the festival – held in the King Street Carpark in Newcastle.
