The Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone is a multi-configurable, flexible space that is ideal for events and activities with a creative edge, including teaching, workshops, presentations and exhibitions.
The Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone is not your average teaching space: it has audio-visual technology to allow innovative delivery of teaching and research. It is a multi-configurable space that is used for teaching and research in Drama, Film, Music and Media, but it is also available to all staff and students for exhibitions, workshops, presentation of project work, open days, community engagement events and other prestigious University events. Activities run through the Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone will provide a platform for future activities in the Attenborough Centre.
The available facilities include:
- Zones of dimmable white halogen lighting

- Over 300 individually controllable LED lights that can be customised to shine across a wide range of colours
- Portable LED Parcans
- 7 plasma screens with powered audio speakers for individual learning zones
- 7 projectors for sending images across the space
- 20 zoneable audio speakers in the ceiling
- 8.1 Surround Sound portable PA system
- Maximum seated capacity of approx 120

Directions
The Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone is situated in Pevensey III, Room C7. Find it on the Campus Map [PDF 729.28KB].
Please note: do not head for the Attenborough Centre itself, which is located at the front of campus, as the building is not open at present.
On weekdays from 9am to 6pm the Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone can be accessed through the revolving door entrance to Pevensey II.
On weekends and weekday evenings after 6pm, unless otherwise instructed, head for the Genome Centre (up the steps off North-South Road, in-between the John Maynard Smith and Pevensey II buildings).
The Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone is about a minute's walk from the Genome Centre. There will usually be signs from the Genome Centre but, if not, turn left at the Genome Centre and walk past the Accelorator Building on your right. Once you have reached the key-coded entrance to Pevensey III, turn right along the path and follow it to the Attenborough Centre Creativity Zone entrance.
For sat nav purposes, the Creativity Zone has no specific postcode, but the nearest postcode is the Friston Building, which is BN1 9SP. This will take you to the nearest car park, which is Car Park 1 (the Science Car Park, off Science Park Road) and this is about a minute's walk from the entrance.
