Take a journey through time and get ready to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of The Customs House with this FREE outdoor visual spectacle Heart of the House designed by the world-class team at NOVAK.
Heart of the House celebrates The Customs House’s 25 years as a cultural venue and will showcase this through exciting projections on the outside of the building.
Do you remember your first visit to The Customs House? Heart of the House will be a true celebration of the building’s past and present, and you’ll be taken on an enchanting journey of nostalgia, fun and illusion.
Expect to see everything from shipbuilding and coal mining to music and performance with South Tyneside icons and pantomime characters popping up. The projections will feature the history, cultural rebirth and legacy of one of the most famous buildings in South Tyneside.
NOVAK specialise in motion design and create projections, art installations and stage visuals for music artists and video for theatre performances. NOVAK has had work featured across the world at some of the most highly regarded arts festivals, including Lumiere and music festivals including Glastonbury and Coachella. NOVAK also created the stunning visuals in The Cultural Spring’s past commissions RUSH and WordPlay.
As well as seeing the magical projections, there will also be a special route leading down to The Customs House which you will be able to walk down and see some unique flags and banners that will be created by the people of South Tyneside in workshops with Creative Seed.
Heart of the House is FREE and takes place on Friday 25th October – Sunday 27th October, 6pm – 10pm – just drop in any night, across the night.
The projections will be on a continuous 10-minute loop so don’t worry about heading down for 6pm, there’ll be plenty of time for everyone to see Heart of the House.
