For over forty years, Helix Arts has been supporting communities and artists across the North East to work together to confront social issues and bring about meaningful change. This exhibition, co-curated with young people from Youth Focus North East, explores the legacy of the organisation’s work in Gateshead and asks how shared culture and everyday creativity can continue to help us renew and strengthen our sense of community in a rapidly changing world.
