Future Heritage

Future Heritage is a new creative sector platform developed by Eldon Square with Newcastle College and Fenwick to champion emerging creative talent across the North East. As a proud patron of the British Fashion Council, Eldon Square is working to connect regional creative industries with national fashion platforms including London Fashion Week.

The initiative forms part of Eldon Square’s ongoing transformation, embedding cultural programming and creative industry partnerships to strengthen commercial performance while deepening civic engagement across the destination.

 

Future Heritage challenged 80 students to produce original fashion pieces and surface textiles inspired by Newcastle’s rich heritage and Eldon Square’s landmark 50th anniversary. 

Judges included Helen Cowie, Centre Director at Eldon Square; Libby Lagun, Director of Digital and Creative Industries at Newcastle College; Dominic Osbourne, Education Manager at the British Fashion Council; and representatives from Fenwick Newcastle and Living North.
