About Art in NorwichThe new Spring/Summer 2020 edition of Art in Norwich hit the streets from 1st March, about the same time as Covid-19. Clearly, some of it became rapidly out-of-date so we have suspended distribution for now. If you have a copy, there is still useful information and some producers are finding different ways to exhibit works. Also, some of the events later in the year may happen and are worth reading about. If you can, please support events online and donate money or buy art if you can - this is a very difficult time for artists and organisations
It is available as a pdf download as well. Printed copies are available from Norwich Cathedral, the Tourist Information Centre at the Forum, libraries, Houghton Hall, GroundWork Gallery and many other places in the city and around the county. If you have something to include in the next booklet read more here. 
Look out for printed copiesThis is the cover so look out for copies around the city, from arts venues, the Tourist Information Centre, coffee shops and bars in the city centre - it's a handy size to keep in your bag or drawer at home. Download a pdf here. And you can view an Issuu here
The printed booklets are out in the next few days - keep a look out in arts racks and Tourist Information Centre Google calendarYou can add this to your own calendar and get easy to remember references to events Click on the plus sign below. There is a large version of the calendar here

About Art in NorwichEditions of Art in Norwich come out twice a year, spring and autumn. It contains listings and info about most of the visual arts activity in and around Norwich and parts of Norfolk for the next six months. It is available as a download from here, and is also available from partner and arts venues, arts info spinner racks and the Tourist Information Centre in the Forum.
The listings are put together as a collaborative venture by the Norwich Visual Arts Forum and all of the partners contribute to the production and distribution which is coordinated by Marion Catlin of Culture Shift. It offers an overview of venues, organisations and events throughout the year and is great for tourists and visitors as well people who live in and around Norwich. Great idea

The exhibition is linked to A Fine Balance - a selling exhibition curated by Contemporary & Country in the Old Stables. You need to have booked a ticket online before visiting either exhibition. 
Now you can take a virtual walk-through to a personal trip to see local artists' work in the stables alongside the Anish Kapoor
LINK: https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=JrjpBAgYsvx If you cannot book a ticket to visit Houghton Hall and the much acclaimed exhibition by Anish Kapoor... don't despair. It is well worth the wait until you get to visit but you can visit Contemporary and Country in the stables now - virtually. Enjoy this rather handy walk-through of our exhibition including hot spots that link through to each artist on our online shop, so you can see each work that interests you in detail and also buy them.

The Belated Spring Art Show opening 11 July
The one-way art exhibition will feature the work of more than 35 artists at a pop-up exhibition in Pivotal House based in the heart of the city (the old Looses building just off Red Lion Street). The Spring Art Show was originally due to take place at The Forum in April but was cancelled as lockdown came into force. Organisers have creatively reimagined the space at Pivotal House into a unique one-way art experience and hope the event will give audiences and artists the dose of culture they’ve been missing. 
ASSEMBLY ONLINE is a new fortnightly live stream series, bringing regular free events to you at home during isolation.
