Urban Rooms

During opening hours

The city belongs to everyone. And everyone should have a voice in the conversation about its future. We have created the Urban Rooms to help make that possible.

Exhibitions and displays

Re-enacting Fisac: Bones and Skins

23 September – 18 December 2026

An exhibition marking the 20th anniversary of the death of the visionary Spanish architect Miguel Fisac.

Plan / Build / Participate

An evolving range of displays, objects and activities exploring how architecture and planning have shaped the Tyneside of today and the roles they can play in reimagining it for tomorrow.

Workshops and talks

Kids and young people

At the Farrell Centre, there’s something for all the family. We offer regular hands-on workshops at the weekend and during half term and holidays suitable for a broad range of ages, plus sessions for babies, toddlers – and their parents, of course – during the week.
