A city-centre venue is getting ready to host one of Norfolk’s most well-known art groups.
Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle is all set to stage its 208th exhibition at The Forum in Norwich this May – showing more than 150 works by its members.
The exhibition will feature new selected artworks and sculptures from the group in a variety of mediums, styles and artforms – with all artwork for sale.
Paul Zawadzki, Chairman of Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle (NNAC) said: “I am very much looking forward to seeing the rich variety of work at the 208th exhibition at the Forum.
“The range of styles and the quality of artwork showcases some of the best work from our members in the region, and there will be something for everyone. Representatives from Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle will be on hand during the show to talk about the work, so please come along and enjoy.”
The popular group has over 200 members, and the history of Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle is deeply rooted in the county.
Established in 1885 following Crome & Cotman’s famous Norwich Society of Artists, the Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle has included treasured national artists such as Alfred Munnings, Edward Seago and Bernard Reynolds in its membership.
The group is always welcoming new members to its groups from a wide diversity of genres and experience.
It hosts regular events including social gatherings, demonstrations and workshops by professionals and a regular life drawing class. It holds two major exhibitions of members’ work each year and all members can submit their work for selection.
The exhibition at The Forum will run from Friday 9th May until Friday 16th May, open from 9am to 4pm daily.
There will be an open preview on Friday 9th May from 6pm when artists will be on hand to speak to visitors and guests about their work. All are welcome.
Entry to the exhibition is free at The Forum, Millennium Plain, Norwich, Norfolk, NR2 1TF.
