About Upfront
Upfront Holiday Accommodation is located on Unthank Farm which is home to the Upfront Arts Venue and Puppet Theatre.
John and Elaine Parkinson opened the venue in 1997, based on a passion for good art and good food. They have combined the two in a unique setting.
Elaine was originally a teacher and skills learnt in this role have given her the organisational skills that underpin the planning of the season of exhibitions and artists. She also makes a strong input into the Puppet Theatre and school visits.
John Parkinson originally trained as a theatre designer. His design skills and knowledge of art enable him to give the gallery its unique style. He is responsible for how the gallery has developed creatively.
The name “Upfront” was chosen to reflect a direct and honest organisation and has now become a key part of its identity.
