The Holy Biscuit is an innovative partnership between The Biscuit Factory, the UK’s largest independent art Gallery and the Methodist Church born out of a shared vision for developing a space for community and cultural engagement.
A former Methodist place of worship, located opposite The Biscuit Factory and in the heart of Newcastle’s Cultural quarter, The Holy Biscuit seeks to be a space fostering social inclusion, spiritual outreach, community regeneration, grass roots creativity and emerging cultural opportunities.
Opened in May 2010, The Holy Biscuit is still in her infancy, but by working closely with professional partners has established a great deal in this short time.
