Cultural cinema and digital creativity centre in Bristol UK

Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, REACT (Research and Enterprise in Arts and Creative Technology) is one of four UK Creative Economy Hubs and is a collaboration between the University of the West of England, Watershed, (and iShed), and the Universities of Bath, Bristol, Cardiff and Exeter.

It reaches across two dynamic UK regions, and uniquely across three cultural areas and two languages and creative economies. Together we aim to generate a transformation in arts-driven economic and social impact, by combining demand from the Creative Economy with Arts and Humanities research excellence.

REACT is working with iShed to deliver projects using the Sandbox process. We will run two Sandbox schemes a year with six projects in each scheme from 2011 – 2014. Each scheme will have a different theme. To qualify you must have a project that uses Arts and Humanities research with a Creative Economy partner.

Heritage Sandbox
Heritage Sandbox, the first theme, launched in December 2011. Find out more at the Heritage Sandbox site.
