Description

Nerve Centre is Northern Ireland's leading creative media arts organisation, founded in 1990 in Derry~Londonderry and now working across buildings in Derry and Belfast. It combines a cinema and performance venue, film and music talent development, creative-learning and education programmes for schools and young people, and a heritage strand that produces digital-heritage resources, archive-cataloguing projects and museum technology. Its heritage work includes cataloguing consortia and digital-volunteering programmes with the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland and The National Archives, and immersive and museum-technology commissions with National Museums Northern Ireland and the Northern Ireland Museums Council. It is an independent charity and company limited by guarantee, supported by a range of arts, heritage and public funders.
