Art in Norwich
Norfolk
Norwich is the creative capital of the East of England - a UNESCO City of Literature with an art scene to match. It gave its name to the Norwich School of Painters, Britain's first provincial art movement, and today holds Norwich Castle's major art collection, the Sainsbury Centre on the UEA campus (one of the country's finest university art museums), and a dense network of galleries, studios and degree shows that feed a steady stream of new work.
Use this guide to find artists based in and around Norwich - across the city and the surrounding South Norfolk and Broadland villages - alongside the museums, galleries and studios where you can see their work and the exhibitions on now.
