THE THINK TANK

Housed within the specially renovated Victorian Wing of Ipswich Museum, the Think Tank opened in 2012, transforming three former classrooms into Robert’s studio, Pacitti Company’s office, and a flexible public events space. Its programme encouraged open questions and lively debate around art, life, and culture, without always offering easy answers. Professional development sessions provided tailored mentoring and support for artists and cultural workers. As an incubator, artists in residence were given the freedom to explore new ideas without the pressure of production, while Think Tank Associates worked closely with Robert to develop concepts and projects for future SPILL Festivals.
