FACT

FACT (The Foundation for Art & Creative Technology) is a multimedia complex situated on Wood Street in Liverpool, England.
It claims to be the UK's foremost organization for the development, support and exhibition of film, video and new and up-and-coming media.
For audiences, FACT offers a point of entry into the arts of film, video and new media. For artists, it is a support system without match in the UK. For Liverpool, it forms a key aspect of its cultural and economic regeneration.
Originally founded in 1989 FACT's goal was to inspire and promote the artistic significance of film, video and new media.
FACT has been a key organization during Liverpool's European Capital of Culture year, 2008.

Designed by architect Austin-Smith Lord, the building is located on Wood Street in the Ropewalks area of the city centre. It has three gallery spaces, four cinema screens and a multimedia suite and also homes a cafe, a bar and a lounge area.
It was opened in February 2003 by its founding executive director Eddie Berg, costing £10 million to build. The building is connected to Bold Street, one of Liverpool’s main shopping areas, by a public square off Wood Street and Colquitt Street.

The mission of the architects was to create a bold landmark building on a site previously occupied by a 1960s garage. In response Austin-Smith Lord created a construction very different in character to the surrounding red-brick warehouses. The zinc tile-clad façade characterizes the building with its seven programmable LED-illuminated columns, running the building’s full six-storey height.

Beyond the façade visitors can find galleries dedicated to moving image and new media artwork, space for online and streaming media broadcasts, the Medialab for the development and production of artists’ projects, and “The Box” – a hybrid gallery/projection space – a café and a bar.

Britannia Adelphi Hotel, Hatters Hostel are some of the closest hotels to find accommodation.
