Therme Art works with internationally renowned artists and architects, as well as emerging talents, to commission and develop site-specific artistic projects that challenge the limitations of conventional exhibition spaces and redefine contemporary art viewing. Therme Art believes that through the ideas and creativity of artists, cities and urban development can be re-shaped to meet the physical n

eeds of humans and to reconnect them with their inner and spiritual selves. Art can be a tool to not only understand nature, but to bring humanity closer to it.

Artists of the Future⁠—a youth-focused community arts platform developed by Therme Art⁠—has recently unveiled a vibrant public art installation at the future Therme Manchester site, the UK’s first urban wellbeing resort at TraffordCity, set to open in late 2028.

Launched in partnership with Therme Manchester and Gorse Hill Studios, the project invited young people across Salford and Trafford to respond to themes at the heart of Therme’s global ethos⁠—nature, water, fun, and wellbeing⁠—through drawing workshops and a competition. The 22 winning artworks now transform the construction hoardings at the future Therme Manchester site into a vibrant celebration of local creativity, with one winner also receiving a family trip to Therme Bucharest.
