Famed for its big skies, sweeping beaches and beautiful countryside, Norfolk has provided inspiration for artists for centuries.
At the county’s heart lies the fine city of Norwich. Its rich artistic heritage can be traced back for centuries. The renowned Norwich School of Painters, established in 1803, celebrated the county with works by artists such as John Crome, Robert Ladbroke, John Sell Cotman and James Stark. Today, arts students flock to the city to take up places on one of the many creative courses on offer. The Sainsbury Centre and Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery are just two of the many exhibition spaces across the city and regularly provide a home for some of the best touring exhibitions in the country.
Away from Norwich, the county is adorned with towns, villages and beautiful natural highlights including its famous coastline and stunning Broads National Park. Art lovers are spoilt for choice with a wealth of galleries across the county offering a varied mix of art of all genres and price ranges. Many of Norfolk’s stately homes also host exhibitions or permanent sculptures including Blickling Hall and Houghton Hall. There are also many festivals showcasing the arts including the Norfolk & Norwich Festival, the Holt Festival Art Prize and the Swaffham Visual Arts Festival.
Norfolk is also home to one of the most successful and popular Open Studios events in the country. Since 2021, the event has moved from the summer to the autumn and will this year take place from September 23rd to October 8th. Another highlight is Paint Out Norfolk (July 13th-22nd) - a plein air art event - which takes place across the county and attracts artists from across Europe and America.
Join us in supporting, engaging and enriching our community through the enjoyment and promotion of the visual arts.

23 SEPTEMBER – 8 OCTOBER
This year’s well-loved Norfolk Open Studios scheme takes place Saturday September 23rd to Sunday October 8th. The scheme has run for almost 30 years and 2023 will be the third time it will be held in early autumn.
Celebrating Norfolk’s makers and creators, Norfolk Open Studios is when artists and schools across the whole county open their studio doors and invite the public to visit. Visitors get to meet and talk with artists, see them at work, buy artwork direct from the artist and you might even be given the opportunity to get creative yourself.
An artist’s workspace can be as interesting and inspiring as the artwork itself. Painters, sculptors, weavers, furniture makers, jewellery makers and lots more can be found working in traditional studio spaces, garages, garden sheds or spare rooms. As well as a studio tour, there will be demonstrations on offer and your own creative flare may be sparked, you may even want to sign-up to one of the many events or workshops held by artists.
Artists also organise Art Trails as a wonderful way to navigate the county and studios, giving suggested routes to make a memorable day out.
Studios are FREE to visit and in August the printed guide will be available at outlets across the county and beyond, including libraries, art spaces and cafes. The guide contains all you need to know to enjoy a full day out, with artist details, maps, event listings, art trails and opening times.
Norfolk Open Studios are open to all, and you will receive a warm welcome. Whether you manage to see one or many, we hope you enjoy your studio visits.

The Sculpture Park surrounds the award-winning Norman-Foster designed Sainsbury Centre building at the University of East Anglia campus. Set within the 350 acres of parkland featuring outstanding art, architecture and natural beauty, it is open daily during daylight for all visitors to enjoy.
The Sculpture Park includes important works by notable artists such as Henry Moore, Elisabeth Frink, Lynn Chadwick, Liliane Lijn, Laurence Edwards, John Davies, Phillip King, Leiko Ikemura and Antony Gormley. It is curated by the Sainsbury Centre with sculptures selected to complement the landscape and listed built environment.
As well as formal sculpture gardens, the Park offers the tranquillity of the Broad and Yare river valley and dense urban modernist architecture, designed by leading architects such as Norman Foster, Denys Lasdun and Rick Mather. The natural environment includes a wide range of fauna and flora including a number of remarkable ancient oaks and is home to a population of wild rabbits and rare and endangered species. Free entry.

This year sees great success for the EXPERIENCE project, funded by the European Union, as newly commissioned artists develop their concepts for public artwork - connecting the city to the countryside - with the planned Norfolk Way Art Trail.
The Norfolk Way Art Trail is a new, long-distance walking and cycling route to enhance and join up existing trails. Public artworks will be situated at five sites along the trail. The 250-mile circuit provides a city gateway to more rural locations off the beaten track and on the water. The installations will start to be put in place one by one from March and will be completed ahead of a full launch of the trail in early Autumn.
The installation sites are at Diss Mere, Reedham Ferry Inn, near Honing Station and two locations in Norwich
city; EXPERIENCE has worked with the Norwich Business Improvement District (BID) team to commission transformative installations at key city spots on St Benedicts Street and Eastbourne Place, subject to the appropriate planning permissions.
The Norfolk Way Art Trail’s four artists are the Iron Reef viewing platform by design studio Maetherea for the Reedham Ferry Inn site; toyStudio’s Flock sculpture for Diss Mere and their Flint installation for St Benedicts Street; the Interval design by Limbic Cinema for Eastbourne Place and Studio Sabine Marcelis’s Honing Passage which will be situated near Honing Station.
The Flock concept by toyStudio for Diss Mere is inspired by the flocking behaviour of birds in flight, schools of fish and the swarms of eels which are synonymous with
the Mere and the nearby River Waveney. At Reedham Ferry Inn, the design agency Maetherea modelled the Iron Reef as an amphibious structure resilient to and shaped by the ebbs and flows of winter tides. The Iron Reef will be planted with appropriate aquatic, oxygenating plants that will grow around and on the structure.
Interval is a playful light sculpture that uses layers, repetition and rhythm to reflect on the passage of time in Norwich. Inspired by the large Sycamore and Beech trees found at Eastbourne Place, the sculpture is an abstraction of tree rings that visualise the passage of time over the course of a tree’s life. Flint is inspired by the rich history of Norwich’s beautiful buildings and medieval streets and is formed of a collection of mirrored totems placed around the grounds of the Norwich Arts Centre. Their shapes are inspired by the organic forms of the flint walls, which not only form the Church of St Swithin, but are an inescapable and
indelible part of the history and landscape of Norfolk.
Dutch designer Studio Sabine Marcelis created Honing Passage to be a unique place for the community to interact, reflect, and enjoy nature. Honing Passage embraces the beauty of the local landscape along the Weaver’s Way at Honing Station, near the North Walsham and Dilham Canal. The installation will be activated by its surroundings and the seasons; when the sun hits the piece, beautiful light reflections are cast, and when it’s raining, beads of water will trickle down the surface in a mesmerising nature.

Artists, galleries and art dealers will flock to Norwich later this year for the East of England’s major art fair.
Art Fair East will return to Norwich in December with artists and dealers gathering from across the UK and overseas at St Andrew’s Hall in the city.
The event, which annually creates a real buzz in the city will bring people together from across the art world, with many artists there in person for visitors to chat to.
Will Teather, who organises the event with fellow artist Brian Korteling, said: “This is our 9th year and will see international and local talent return to St Andrew’s Hall for the Eastern region’s largest art fair.
“Alongside international artists already confirmed from locations such as Italy, we have many local talents taking part including new exhibitors such as Ellis King alongside our regular favourites.
“As both artists and organisers, it is also a chance for us to show our latest work too.
“It remains the only event of its scale in the area and is a London-style art fair for the East of England. Hundreds
of works will be on display with many artists there in person to discuss their work.”
With around 1,000 artworks on display, a range of contemporary art will be exhibited including painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, video art, installation, kinetic art and original limited-edition prints. All the work will be for sale - this is a fantastic opportunity to choose a unique artwork for your home, support artists and perhaps invest in a future star.
The event is sponsored by Musker McIntyre and Chadwicks.

The natural beauty of Suffolk will always be synonymous with famous paintings from the likes of John Constable and Thomas Gainsborough, both of whom grew up on the southern edge of this stunning county. Continuing this rich, artistic heritage, Suffolk still provides a home and inspiration for many artists with numerous galleries - both on the coast and inland - hosting exhibitions throughout the year.
The beautiful countryside, picture-perfect villages and coastal charm have long provided inspiration to artists and still does so today. From Maggi Hambling’s Scallop sculpture on Aldeburgh Beach to sporting art on display at Palace House, Newmarket, there is an eclectic mix of creativity on show to cater for all tastes.
The town of Ipswich is home to Christchurch Mansion whose gallery showcases work by, among others, John Constable. It also has a fantastic programme of changing exhibitions throughout the year. In Sudbury, after a multi-million pound re-development, the childhood home of Thomas Gainsborough - Gainsborough’s House - reopened last year and stands as a spectacular museum to the artist himself, holding the most comprehensive collection of his artwork within a single setting anywhere in the world.
The ever-popular Suffolk Open Studios takes place across the four weekends of June up and down the county and offers a rare glimpse behind the scenes in the artists’ studios and the chance to purchase art direct from the maker.
Festivals also play a huge part in the life of this region with visual arts featuring in many such as The Southwold Arts Festival, Latitude Festival at Henham Park and the Aldeburgh Festival at Snape Maltings.

The historic Christchurch Mansion in Ipswich is home to a large amount of art and holds the biggest collection of Thomas Gainsborough and John Constable paintings outside of London, including many local landscapes as well as portraits.
From sketches and paintings to sculptures and ceramics, you will find a vast array of pieces within the Tudor building. Many of the artworks at the Mansion depict Ipswich and the Suffolk area, such as the works of Leonard Squirrell and George Frost. One of the most popular pieces at Christchurch Mansion is ‘The
Felixstowe to Ipswich Coach’ by Russell Sidney Reeve. The Ipswich collection also includes works by many women artists, including Anna Airy, Barbara Hepworth and Elisabeth Frink. A painting by Suffolk artist Doris Zinkeisen is currently displayed in the Suffolk Artists’ Gallery, newly acquired through the generous support of the Friends of the Ipswich Museums, Art Fund and Arts Council England/V&A Purchase Grant Fund. The portrait of Doris’ daughters Janet and Anne Grahame Johnstone and her niece, Julia Heseltine, reveals the story of four established female artists who all came to call Suffolk their home.
Due to the size of the collection, not all of the works are able to be displayed, so temporary exhibitions provide opportunities to see many pieces not usually on display. Past art exhibitions include Kiss & Tell: Rodin and Suffolk Sculpture, Creating Constable, and Landscape Rebels.

Christchurch Mansion is open Tuesdays-Sundays and admission is free.
Following the huge success of the Moments exhibition at Moyse’s Hall Museum in Bury St Edmunds in 2021, which attracted nearly 25,000 visitors, West Suffolk is set to host one of the country’s biggest modern art exhibitions of 2023 featuring several artworks by controversial street artist, Banksy.
Urban Frame: Mutiny in Colour will run simultaneously across three locations in West Suffolk during the summer, namely Moyse’s Hall Museum, Bury St Edmunds; the National Horseracing Museum in Newmarket and Haverhill Arts Centre. It is being organised in association with Brandler Galleries.
The exhibition will host over 300 works from some of the world’s most renowned contemporary artists as well as Bansky. These include Blek le Rat, Pure Evil, My Dog Sighs, Kaws, the Connor Brothers, Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Sherlock, Swoon, Ben Eine, Bambi, Hush and Lamont White, to name a few.
Running from June 3rd until October 1st, the all-new display at Moyse’s Hall will include Banksy’s ‘Sandcastle Girl’, which was painted on a wall in Lowestoft during his ‘spraycation’ visit to East Anglia in 2021.
Open on the same dates, the Newmarket exhibition will feature Banksy’s ‘Hula Hoop Girl’ and a Citroen Berlingo
van painted for Coventry Museum by My Dog Sighs. This stunning and unique piece features two hundred eyes on the bodywork and a pair of hanging ‘eye cans’ as a homage to the furry dice of the time.
Haverhill Arts Centre’s exhibition, July 10th –September 12th, will also include several original Banksy pieces and the critically acclaimed ‘Argentina’ artwork by Swoon, one of the first women street artists.
Urban Frame: Mutiny in Colour will be supported by a

Every year in June, Suffolk Open Studios hosts an annual event, where artists and makers across the county dust off their overalls, display their artworks and open their doors for the public to explore for free!
The organisation is run by volunteers and has been happening for over 30 years, with the opens studios event back again for 2023 - over 170 artists, makers and galleries in Suffolk will be ready to welcome you into their spaces across the four weekends of June.
You will see a wide range of disciplines including ceramics, painting, drawing, jewellery, woodwork, glass, mixed media and so much more. You will have the opportunity to meet the artist, maker or gallery owner, and discover exciting artworks and techniques you may have never seen before.
Those opening their studios will be showcasing their artworks as well as their spaces, allowing you to understand how they get inspiration, how they create their original art and get to know them. They are happy that you visit, welcoming you to see what they are creating and with artworks, sculptures and prints for sale.
The printed directory - available around the county from April - contains all you need to know about everyone taking part, including which weekend/s each will be open. It also includes location maps to help you plan your visit.
There is also an App available, just search Suffolk Open Studios in your phone’s App store, which will help you discover the artists and makers in a new way. The App
will have all of the information the directory holds, and can be used to give you directions via google maps to the studio locations.
Some artists are grouping together to create hubs and share a venue. You will be able to see the artist hubs on our website as well as trails that have been put together by the artists themselves. The trails give you the chance to visit studios in the same area with additional stops at interesting sites and pubs as you travel through the picturesque countryside.
Suffolk Open Studios hold member exhibitions during the year. This year the showcase exhibition will be held at the Ballroom Arts Gallery in Aldeburgh from April 6th-11th.
For more information, on opening dates and times, exhibiting artists, pick up a directory at your local
library, gallery or community space, download the Suffolk Open Studios App or visit our website: www.suffolkopenstudios.org
Nothing says Suffolk quite like the iconic Henry Watson’s Potteries brand.
Since the early 19th century, Henry Watson’s Potteries have established a reputation for supplying wellcrafted, innovative products that sit beautifully in both traditional and contemporary kitchens.
Still on the original site where the company was founded in 1800, just three quarters of a mile away from the seam of clay that was discovered, their rich history and heritage can be seen from the outbuildings made from bricks and tiles manufactured on site to the handcrafting skills passed through the generations. Many of the hand-crafted techniques have been
preserved, perfected and are still used in their factory today.
Written records of pottery manufacturing on site date back to 1646 and the actual deeds of the pottery date back to 1734. But these aren’t the earliest records of ceramic production in the area. For the start we have to jump back 2000 years to AD 43 and the Roman occupation of Britain. In the early - mid 1900’s an archaeologist by the name of Basil Brown (known for discovering and excavating the Sutton Hoo) discovered several roman settlements and kiln sites less than half a mile from the current pottery.
The Pottery today is run by the seventh generation, brother and sister team, Charlotte and George. From Thomas Watson, the company’s founder through to the seventh generation today, the company has offered consistently high-quality products that are truly iconic and push the boundaries of what can be done with terracotta. Customer service, the highest quality and sustainability are always at the forefront of the company’s ethos and continue to be demonstrated today.

Tucked away in this picturesque corner of North Suffolk near Eye is the stunning Thornham Estate, home to Thornham Walks and a selection of art businesses.
It’s a beautiful place to take a walk or stop for lunch but, for art lovers, it also offers the opportunity to visit a selection of galleries and see artists at work.
With galleries specialising in painting, drawing, photography and ceramics there is something for everyone to enjoy. It is also home to Falcon Publications - the publishers of ARTSeast magazine and this yearly Visual Arts Guide.
Set in the heart of the Dedham Vale countryside, the hamlet of Flatford was the inspiration for some of John Constable’s most iconic landscape paintings including the Hay Wain and Boatbuilding near Flatford Mill.
Constable spent his entire childhood in the Dedham Vale. Flatford and the landscape of the Stour Valley dominated his paintings from the early 1800s.
Today, the National Trust manages the landscape at Flatford. Visitors can enjoy countryside walks in the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, visit the Constable Exhibition or discover the views that Constable painted on one of their guided tours. Volunteers are also at the Hay Wain view on weekday afternoons and at weekends to talk you through the history of Constable’s most famous landscape.
Set alongside the River Stour, visitors can also see the buildings within the hamlet of Flatford – Flatford Mill, Willy Lott’s House, Bridge Cottage and The Granary.
Vistors can enjoy a number of walking trails, hunt for geocaches, hire a rowing boat and enjoy a tasty treat in the cosy tea room.
