BALTIC is Ten
Marking our tenth birthday, BALTIC launches a new specially commissioned range of limited artist prints, BALTIC Editions. The donated works, all by artists who have exhibited previously at BALTIC, will go on sale in 2012 with proceeds helping support BALTIC’s exhibition and education programme.
This year, BALTIC turns ten and what a decade it has been. We have presented 179 exhibitions with artists from 50 different countries and welcomed over 4.5 million visitors. We need your help to satisfy this hunger. We ask that you consider donating £10, or whatever you can, to our Learning Fund, helping children, parents and grandparents alike to find personal connection with the artworks. Click here to donate online.
