ABOUT THE AUXILIARYGALLERY // STUDIOS // WORKSHOP // TOOL LIBRARY // RESIDENCY // FESTIVALSThe Auxiliary Project Space (Estb. 2016) started life as a raw, malleable live/work space in Stockton-on-Tees. Inviting artists into the home of directors Anna Byrne & Liam Slevin, the idea was to reimagine and reconfigure the space around their needs; from workspace to gallery, meeting point to studio. The Auxiliary grew and expanded, delivering festivals and performance series across the Tees Valley such as FEED (2016-Present) Middlesbrough Art Weekender (2017 - 2019, 2021, 2022,) Brick Day 2017, Stockton Contemporary 2018 and Sonic Arts Week 2019 & 2021. Upcoming festivals include Middlesbrough Art Weekender 2023 & Sonic Arts Week 2023.In 2019, The Auxiliary expanded to include a 10,000 sqft. warehouse space in Middlesbrough. Consisting of two galleries, 12 studios and workshop/performance space. In 2022, The Auxiliary purchased their building and 2023 will see the start of £1million refurbishment thanks to Capital Development Fund.Curatorially, The Auxiliary is a site for the production of experimental & sound art practices. It encourages & promotes the sonic arts through investigating the rich local industrial heritage and reimagines the Tees Valley as a site for invigorated, creative industries.
