Contemporary Urban Centre

Contemporary Urban Centres

Contemporary Urban Centre's are a new idea for the 21st Century. Through Arts, Culture and Social Enterprise, Contemporary Urban Centre's will reflect the themes of contemporary life in the urban environment, particularly from the point of view of marginalised and excluded communities. By celebrating, exploring and engaging with the vibrant yet latent talent of the dispossessed, Novas Scarman aims to break the cycle of poverty and exclusion.

The Novas Scarman Group will launch four centres in England in 2007 and 2008 in London Bridge Bankside (April 2007), Liverpool (Summer 2008), Dean Street (Summer 2008) and Camden Town (Autumn 2008). Read more..
