Open studios
Norfolk Open Studios is delivered by Norfolk & Norwich Festival in partnership with Norfolk artists for the benefit of Norfolk artists. Each year for the last 15 years, hundreds of artists scattered across the county have opened up their studios, homes, garden sheds and outhouses to the public to create a unique and personal visual arts event.
The scheme gives the public a chance to meet artists in an informal setting, see and buy or commission artwork and discuss the techniques and processes used to create the work. It gives artists the chance to connect with their audience and in many cases the public can watch as they work in their studio setting.
Norfolk Open Studios,has established itself as one of the largest and most successful open studio schemes in the country. In 2009, an estimated 27,400 members of the public roamed the county to visit over 350 participating artists in 253 venues and an estimated total of £221,628 worth of art
was sold.
