Arts centre planned for Sheffield

Sheffield will receive a new arts centre as a London-based organisation relocates to the area.

Arts Catalyst, a charity that commissions science and technology-based work, is moving from King's Cross to Sheffield later this year.

Artistic Director Laura Clarke said the city has "an amazing DIY ethos and quite an exciting, growing cultural landscape at the moment".

"If you think about the ways we work, and the subjects we're interested in, Sheffield feels like it has a lot of synergies."

Its team is looking for a suitable building in which to set up the new centre, which will have a gallery, research area and possibly creative workspaces.
