Rubber Duck Factory is an artist collective designed to bring together creatives from around the North East. Art in the north isn’t always celebrated, or is harder to access; we want to help change that by creating a space for art students, and other creatives, to display their work outside of the university walls. We aim to provide opportunities for new and emerging artists to meet like-minded people and display work alongside other students from the area, whom they may not otherwise cross paths with.

We aim to create exhibitions bringing together Newcastle and Northumbria art students in exhibitions outside of the universities, and allow them to have opportunities similar to those of full-time artists.
