Plymouth's empty shops to become art and exhibition spaces in bid to attract businesses

Empty shops in Plymouth city centre are to be turned into exhibition spaces, art installations and homes for “experimental” start-up businesses under a new scheme.

Plymouth Culture in partnership with Vacancy Atlas are leading on the Meanwhile Use project and guiding creative organisations through the process of refitting disused shops for a cultural transformation.

The idea is to bring empty buildings and urban areas to life with “vibrant exhibitions, interactive experiences and inspiring installations” that celebrate the city and its heritage.
